Pottstown High School wrestlers know that it takes more then wrestling skills to gain success in the world. A strong academic foundation coupled with self discipline and focus learned on the mats are building blocks of adult success.

 

Eleven of the sixteen member team recently earned end of marking period academic Distinguished Honors or Honors. All eleven are multi-sport athletes, who also are members of school organizations like Student Government, DECA, Honor Society, and the district musical.

Head Coach Nick Wade said, we are proud that our team members are taking full advantage of the opportunities our district provides them.
