2020 Season Preview
Head Coach: Ron Laycock (23rd Season)
2019 Overall Record: 9-11 / Shore Conference: 4-7 / A-South: 1-6
Sectionals: Did Not Qualify
7th Place District 28
7th Place A-South
30th Place Shore Conference Tournament
Down Low (106-132): The bulk of the experience returning for TRS lies in the lowerweights. Senior Justin Murray tied for the team lead in wins last season with 26, and advanced to the Regions after placing 3rd at Districts. Luke Cox returns off a strong freshman season in which he put up a record of 19-9. Senior Jacob Cox, junior Chris Yuro, and sophomores Josh and Errol Bocchino all have varying levels of varsity experience giving South a stable group as some youngsters look to crack the lineup.
In The Middle (138-160): No starters return here, but the Indians are hoping for step-up years from senior Shane Gibson, who wrestled behind Riley Cheong last season, and Andrew Ganun, a sophomore who got seven varsity matches in last season. The rest of this group likely will consist entirely of new faces to the lineup.
Up Top (170-Hwt): Senior Dylan Applegate is the lone returning starter up top and will look to provide veteran leadership to this group. The good news here is the numbers in the upperweights are up compared to where they have been in previous years, leading to good competition and improvement in the room as several battle for potential starting roles in the lineup.
