V.I.S.A.A. Prep. Duals

          This past weekend the Tigers competed in the VISAA Prep Duals, a 10 team tournament made up of some of the best private schools in the state. 

          Woodberry wrestled 5 dual matches on the day and finished up with a 2-3 overall record, with wins coming against Collegiate and Covenant while the losses were to Paul VI, St Christopher's, and Fishburne Military Academy.  

Team Scores from Saturday:
WFS 24 Paul VI 38
WFS 18 St Christopher's 62
WFS 30 Fishburne 45
WFS 42 Collegiate 31
WFS 48 Covenant 21

          Some highlights include:
Davis Smith goes 5-0 on the day.  Davis' record now stands at a perfect 24-0 on the season as he continues to dominate his opponents from all 3 wrestling positions.  

          Will Harris split on Saturday, going 2-2 with wins coming against St Christopher's and Fishburne.  Will is really finding his stride on the mat while executing solid technical moves.  

          Ward Bissell had a good weekend on the mat and continues developing the technical skills needed at this time of year, finishing up with a 2-2 record.  Ward pinned two of his opponents in the first period on Saturday, getting to his offense early and having an attack-style mindset!

Taft Gantt 1-4
Sy Duke 2-3
Philip Williams 2-3
Will Medick 3-2
Will Thomas 2-3
Alex Kim 2-3
