2018-19 Lake Mead Wrestling Capsule

LAKE MEAD

Head coach: Bryan White, second season

Returning lettermen: Two

Top wrestlers: Bryan White (So.), Hunter Auschwitz (So.)

Outlook: Auschwitz, who likely will wrestle at 170 or 182, was a Southern Region champion and finished fourth in the Class 2A state meet last year. The younger White (195) also advanced to state last year.

“Our two returning varsity wrestlers are setting the tone for a very strong showing this year with the addition of six new wrestlers,” Coach White said. “Our squad is tenacious and very goal-oriented with nothing less in our sights than qualifying for state and finishing strong as a team.

“Auschwitz and White are looking quicker and stronger early in the season season and are expected to qualify for state. New to the mat are Chase Wallin (106), Kyle Raybuck (113), Curtis Fuller (138), Dillon Calton (152), Christian Brunson (160), and Johny Johnson (220). This new group of wrestlers could have a strong showing at regionals this year.”
