FAITH LUTHERAN

Head coach: Rayes Gonzales, second season

Returning lettermen: Ten

Top wrestlers: Connor Bourne (Sr.), Carson Cook (Sr.), Gabriel Rodriguez (Sr.)

Outlook: Bourne is the defending Class 4A state champion at 182 pounds and went 38-6 last season. He’ll likely wrestle at 182 or 195.

Also back to help lead the team are Cook (152 or 160) and Rodriguez (126 or 132) who both were state quarterfinalists.

In all, the Crusaders welcome back 10 lettermen.

“We want to continue to improve each practice and compete,” Gonzales said.
