High School Sports Feature: Enumclaw Wrestling


The Enumclaw Hornets wrestling team easily won their second straight 3A team title by scoring 174 points. 174 happens to be the second most points ever scored by a 3A team at Mat Classic.

The Hornets had nine wrestlers place, including two state champions.

Here's how those nine fared at Mat Classic XXI in Tacoma:

Sam Bauer (125) - State Champion
Wayne Horton (130) - 4th
Kyle Young (135) - 7th
Jason Grey (140) - State Champion
Josh Musick (140) - 3rd
Jacob Jokela (145) -3rd
Connor Elder (160) - 2nd
Mike Staples (189) - 6th
Brad McCutchens (215) - 2nd

Both Bauer and Grey won state championships last year as well.

But that's not all for these two impressive young wrestlers, both finished the season with amazing 42-0 records.

In addition to his two state championships and perfect record, Grey became the Hornets' first wrestler to place in State each of his four years. During his sophomore and freshman years he had placed third and fourth.

Congratulations to Enumclaw High School and Head Coach Lee Reichert on this impressive feat.
