Jacks send 11 wrestlers to Mat Classic
QUINCY — Eleven wrestlers will represent the Quincy Jacks in the 2A bracket of the Mat Classic this year across the boys and girls teams. “Super proud of them,” Boys Head Coach Breck Webley said. “A few of them had great records and were consistent throughout the season and in their performance, so this was just kind of a reflection of that. We had a few outliers teetering on the edge... and then they just turned it on and peaked at the right time, and were able to clinch a spot, which was awesome to see as well.”
