2014-15 Western Wrestling Capsule

WESTERN

Head coach: Mark Seglin, fifth season

Returning lettermen: Twelve

Top wrestlers: Alex Richardson (Sr.), Luis Lopez (Jr.), Randall Rivera (So.), Michael Gonzalez (Sr.), Santiago Elebario (Sr.), Jailene Hernandez (Sr.), Carl Trantham (Sr.)

Outlook: Richardson, who likely will wrestle at 138 pounds, and Trantham (182) both took third place at last year’s Division I-A state meet. Lopez (145) also was a state meet qualifier.

“I feel with the way Western wrestling is progressing that we are not far off from taking the division,” Seglin said. “We have been getting stronger each year and expect more improvement during a year of reloading.”
