Bullock Creek Wrestling

When Wesley and Nick Wardell took over a struggling high school wrestling program in 2001 they were 3-27 and couldn't field a complete team. Through community involvement and personal dedication the varsity team went 28-5 in 2011, producing 11 individual regional qualifiers, 8 State Qualifiers, and 4 State Placers. The team earned an invitation to the state tournament and was called one of "The Elite Eight". The athletes success was the work of the community as a whole.
