Hello All,

certain amount of pride, I would like to recognize that all of the winter teams
have made it into the CIF playoffs.

The Wrestling Team has 5
first place finishers in Moore League.
The Wrestling Team has two very important competitions coming up and
they are the Masters and CIF. The
Moore League Champions are as follows:
- Senior Derrick Takeshita - 125 lbs
- Freshman Dylan Takeshita - 130 lbs might be the
first 9th grader to take a weight class in Moore League
- Senior Jared Stain - 135 lbs
- Senior Adam Hase - 189lbs has 38 pins so far this
season and has 85 pins overall.
Adam has overtaken the record for most pins (84) at Millikan High
School, which was formerly held by Hugo Hernandez. He has a very good chance of
overtaking the record for most pins in a season (41), which is held by
Kyle Peterson.
- Senior Emilio Arreola - 275 lbs was recognized by
the Press Telegram as Wrestler of the week.
Two other wrestlers lost in
overtime and they are:
- Junior Doug Swayne, 215 lbs lost in overtime
- Senior Daniel Ringey, 140 lbs lost by one point.
This week promises to be a
very busy week with some great games.
Please come out and support our young women and men who have put huge
amounts of their time and energy preparing for their success. Way to go RAMS athletes and coaches, we
are all very proud of you!
Sincerely,
Jeff
