What an amazing end to our season. Salome Stallworth our senior girl wrestler at 110 lbs did great! 

At the state competition she won her first round and then lost her next 2 rounds. 
Here a few stats for her career. She is WHHS first District Champion, 2 x regional placer 6th 2018 and 2nd 2019, and 2019 State Qualifier! She is also a straight A student in our IB program.

It has been an honor to coach her. I am sure wherever life leads her she will face it with determination and grit!

PS. Now she gets to eat all she wants to! Haha!

Salome Stallworth is going to represent WHHS at the 2019 6A-5A State Wrestling Championships this weekend. We have sent a wrestler to state competition 3 out of the past 4 years and Salome is our FIRST female state qualifier.

Congratulations to Western Hills first female wrestler to Place at Regionals and Qualify for State competition -- Salome Stallworth! Salome's record for the season so far is 22 wins and only 5 losses. She will be traveling to Houston Cy-Fair February 21st for the State Championships!

Also, we want to congratulate all the wrestlers who competed so hard this season: Andres Garcia, Aaliyah Ruiz, Jonathon Frank, Jordan Collie, and Chris Howard.

Lastly, I want to recognize senior Colten Loud for an outstanding season. There is no doubt he would have qualified for State had he not sustained a season-ending injury. Colton has accumulated a career record of 93 wins and 53 losses. Colton has grown as a wrestler every season, and, more importantly, he has grown into an outstanding young man. We are proud to have him represent Western Hills Wrestling.

It was an exciting and eventful day at Grapevine HS where your Cougar Wrestlers faced off with the best wrestlers of the District. Teams represented at the tournament included Arlington Heights, Benbrook, Dunbar, OD Wyatt, Carter Riverside, Argyle, Northwest, Birdville, Colleyville Heritage, and Grapevine. 

Western Hills took 4 varsity wrestlers and came home with 4 placers! Great Job Cougars! 

Here are the results, in Varsity Boys competition Colton Loud in the 120lb class won 2nd place and Andres Garcia in the 170lb class won 5th place. In Varsity Girls Aaliyah Ruiz in the 128lb class took 3rd Place and introducing YOUR District Champion in the 110lb weight class, Salome Stallworth!

Be sure to congratulate all your Cougar wrestlers and wish them luck as they all qualified and will be moving on to Regional championships this weekend in Frisco!

Cougar Nation!

The JV boys had a great day at the JV District Championships. 

Jonathan Frank brought his A game and came away with  2nd place in the 195lb class. Christopher Howard fought through the tough bracket of competitors to eventually claim 4th place in the 152 lb class. 

Your Varsity team is competing today in Grapevine against some tough competition in the District 5-5A championships.  Only the top 4 finishers from each weight class will move on to Regional Championships next week. 

Wow what a great weekend the Cougar wrestlers had! They traveled to Plano East high school and competed against over 30 different teams from Houston, Austin, Killeen and the DFW area. All of the cougars fought hard and garnered success. Colton Loud went 3-1 and earned a 3rd place medal, Salome Stallworth made it to the finals and earned a 2nd place medal. Andres Garcia, Aaliyah Ruiz and Jonathan Frank all competed well and had some hard fought wins.

The cougar wrestlers were busy over the holiday break. They competed in the Eagle Mountain Saginaw Invitational  and started the new year off at the Lamar Invitational against more than 30 teams.
