Panther wrestlers shine at Las Vegas tournament

by

Two Pahranagat Valley High wrestlers placed first in the Centennial High School Invitational Dec 20-21 in Las Vegas.

Jeremy Minick (138) and Mateo Linares (220) both won their respective divisions. ?Both were 4-0,? said Pahranagat coach Brad Loveday. Other PVHS wrestlers participated, he said, but did not place in the 16-team tournament, composed mostly of Las Vegas schools, except for Pahranagat and Indian Springs.

?It was good for the kids,? said Loveday, ?good competition with a lot of matches with kids we won?t see during the (league) season. A well run tournament with a lot of matches for the kids right before Christmas break.?

Pahranagat?s next matches will be during the Panther Invitational in Alamo Jan. 10.
