The Mira Costa wrestling team traveled to rival Redondo Union High School to partake in the Bay League Finals on Feb.4. Many Mustangs out-wrestled their opponents, but West Torrance High dominated the tournament.
Senior Tyler Emery defeated Redondo’s top wrestler and captain Damon Guerrero in their weight class, finishing second. Junior Jake Shapiro and senior Danyel Rodriguez each placed second in their respective weight classes. Senior Ian Goodbody was the lone Mustang to finish in first place in his weight class.
“I feel like we performed really well,” Emery said. “West Torrance High performed at the top of their level. I give them a lot of credit.”
The Mustangs will send Emery, Goodbody, Rodriguez, and Shapiro to the CIF Individuals in Canyon Springs at Canyon Springs High School today and tomorrow.
With three of the four Mustang wrestlers in the senior class, this CIF run will be the last wrestling opportunity of their Mira Costa High School career.
