On Saturday, Jan. 10th, at St. Patrick’s Catholic Secondary School, the Fighting Irish will host teams from around Ontario in a dual-meet format tournament. In this style of tournament, teams face off, body-to-body, to determine which team is better. Each team provides one wrestler in each weight class, and that one wrestler faces against another wrestler in the same weight class. The team with the most matches won at the end of the meet wins.

Come on out for wrestling starting at 9:00am on Saturday, Jan. 10th at St. Patrick’s. There will be a small fee for spectators to help support running the light show.
