There are many winter sport options that are available to students. But, there is one that sticks out and that is wrestling. Wrestling is the best winter sport to participate in.

Wrestling is very popular in many schools. Wrestling season for Lewis Cass usually starts in early January and ends early March. Wrestling is the best winter sport because you can have fun, learn new things and even get or stay in shape. In wrestling here at Lewis Cass Junior High, we have a schedule during the week. Monday we go in the weight room, Tuesday we run, and then it repeats that up until Friday. On Friday we usually play a game or run; when we run on Fridays, we do Indian runs. When we do Indian runs, everyone lays in one big circle, then one person gets up and starts running and then after he jumps over the guy beside him and that person gets up and starts running and then that keeps repeating again and again.

We will wrestle in tournaments, one-on-one meets, and three way meets. There are many weight classes to wrestle in. Usually in middle school, the lower the weight the better the competition, but it can vary. Wrestling is very good for your health because if you are out of shape, you can get in shape because we run and workout a lot. Wrestling is very very intense; it is also really fun.

Wrestling is very fun and you should try it and maybe you’ll learn something new, and play new games.
