State of the Program ... Wakefield (NC)
Wakefield (NC)
Wakefield returns all but four of their starters from the 2020-21 season including both State Qualifiers in Daniel Martinez and Hagan Meyer. It was a strange season in North Carolina in 20-21 with no consolations through the regional or state tournament - so several wrestlers that might have had a shot to make the tournament may have missed out by drawing a hammer in the quarters.
Zachary Russo and Jackson Froh both won matches in the 4A East Region tournament, but couldn’t breakthrough and punch their ticket to the state tournament … both will look to change that in 21-22. Keep an eye on Kobe Masingale, Baldwin Taylor and Connor Dorsett - they will look to make an impact in 2022 as well.
“We have two returning State Qualifiers as well as two other talents with wins over regional finalists. The team has had a strong off-season presence with majority of the starting line-up participating in duals, tournaments, clubs and clinics. We expect to have anywhere between 7-9 SQs this upcoming season.”
