2A-8 Preview:
Kabra Wrestling Rankings are updated every week all season long for Kabra+ members.
Last season: Lead by a strong senior class, Lyman won the school’s first team district title since 2013 and also won the school’s first-ever district duals title.
How did Kabra do?: We picked the champions correctly, and while we didn’t pick the order right, we did think that it would be a toss-up for second place. And it was with East River earning the honor.

What they are saying: “With graduating a very tough and large senior class (4 state qualifiers, 2 state placers, 7 district champions), this team is motivated to continue atop our district and to represent Lyman at the state tournament and on the podium.” - Chris Canale
Outlook: The Greyhounds are a freshman/sophomore heavy team. Despite being young, they do have experience and a majority of them have been working in the room this offseason and most have gotten over 50 off-season matches. This group is eager to continue the legacy that the graduating class helped begin at Lyman.
