2019-2020 Tiger Takedown #12 Aztec Wrestling Newsletter 2/17/2020
With qualifying finalized, the Aztec Girls Team will send 4 solid young ladies to the first New Mexico sanctioned full blown Girls State Tournament. The Boys Wrestling team qualified all 14 wrestlers, in very dominating fashion, placing 12 in the finals and winning 7 District Individual Championships, putting us far ahead of second place Miyamura. Aztec will be going for a unprecedented 19th State Championship, if we put it all together next weekend in Rio Rancho. We will be pushed by Los Lunas and Silver City, who have also had a great year of wrestling.
