Monmouth Wrestling
Coach: Shawn Schultz (fifth year)
Last year’s record: Under .500
Returning letter winners: Juniors – Pat McInnis (119), Eric Coulumbe (125), Tamara Cushman (125), Tyler Guzman (140), Henry Talbot (152), Kyle Foyt (189); Sophomores – Matt McInnis (103); Winthrop wrestlers – Alex Bittues and Josh Seekins.
Key losses: Cody Guzman (160).
Promising newcomers: Freshman – Ryan Harris (215).
What to expect: The Mustangs have been down in recent years, but numbers are improving. Matt McInnis (13-7), Pat McInnis (21-9), Foyt (17-7), Coulombe (18-9) and Harris are all kids to watch. Good things will come from them. They need to be competitive, but it won’t happen overnight. An inability to fill every weight class has hindered the team.
Outlook: “There ‘s a good buzz in the wrestling room.” – Coach Shawn Schultz
