On November 30th the Girls Wrestling Team competed in a 6-way meet at San Pedro High. Although Mira Costa had 4 forfeits, they beat Lawndale/Torrance and West. They lost to Warren, but it was a great start to the season.
Mira Costa 42 – Lawndale/Torrance 42 (Lawndale and Torrance combined their teams together so there would be less forfeits and more matches for the kids.) Mira Costa won by criteria
Mira Costa 46 – West 24
Warren 52 – Mira Costa 30 (Although MC lost to Warren, Warren was given 24 points due to forfeits)
The team is hoping to have the injured girls ready for the next tournament so not as many points are given up.
