The annual Wrestling Awards Banquet was one of the largest attended wrestling events of the season. The MPR was packed with past, present, future fans, parents and wrestlers. Ricky Adair was the Legends of the Past guest speaker. Ricky was on 3 State Champion teams in 1990, ‘91 and ’92. He won 2 individual State Championships along the way. His message was based on how important older wrestlers were to the younger wrestlers and how much his time in the Aztec Wrestling Program has meant to him and helped him in his present life.
