over the past few weeks, many of north catholic wrestlers have been keeping busy wrestling in many post season tournaments. the biggest on the east coast is the Mid-Atlantic Wrestling Association (MAWA) Eastern Nationals. To qualify, a wrestler must place in the top 3 in two successive qualifiers. The Eastern Nationals took place on Saturday and Sunday in Ocean City, MD.
North Wrestling came away with two wrestlers earn MAWA All-American honors. AJ Vizcarrondo (freshman - 215) and Jermey Reith (sophmore - 285) both placed 1st and 6th .
AJ became North's first High School MAWA Champion with a 5-4 win over Joe Stofi - a state qualifier from Souderton. Stofi beat AJ in both qualifying tournaments leading up to their championship show-down. AJ used a reversal in the last 5 seconds to nail down the win!!!!
Jeremy lost his first match but showed a bunch of grit winning 3 matches in a row to place 6th!!!
CONGRATULATIONS BOYS AND KEEP UP THE HARD WORK!!!!
We would also like to give a shout out to coach rick mascino who is still trying to hold on to his glory days and placed 4th in the heavyweight open division. i tried to talk to coach mascino after this last match but this is all that he could say....
PLEASE NOTE: I had a much better image of ricky throwing up. However, in the art of good taste, i decided against using it. im sure you can get the point.
LASTLY...if anyone would like to attend our golf outing or be a hole sponsor, let me know ASAP!
