The Griffin King-Lyons Township High School Wrestling Team's Thrilling Victory Over Rival Hinsdale Central

This season has been a testament to the team's dedication and perseverance, according to Head Varsity Coach Griffin Powell. And what better way to demonstrate that than with a thrilling 42-30 victory over rival Hinsdale Central High School? The win was nothing short of unforgettable, as Captain Andrew Schodrof '20 described it.

The match was neck and neck until the very end, with each team fighting for every point. In fact, if Central had managed to pin Lyons Township instead of the other way around, the outcome would have been far from certain. But a stunning upset in the heavyweight category gave LT the momentum they needed to pull ahead and secure the win.

Captain Griffin King '20 recalled the intensity of the match, stating that 'beating Hinsdale was crazy.' The pressure and drama added an electric atmosphere to Vaughan Gym, making every dual point count as the teams battled it out. In the end, it was a true team effort that led to Lyons Township's triumph.

For Coach Powell and the entire wrestling team, this victory is a reminder of their hard work and commitment to excellence. As they continue through the season, they'll be looking to build on this momentum and make even more unforgettable memories.
