2017-18 Moapa Valley Wrestling Capsule

MOAPA VALLEY

Head coach: Tyson Houston, third season

Returning lettermen: Five

Top wrestlers: Jorge Cervantes (Sr.), Zachary Anderson (Sr.), Hayden Redd (So.), Gavin Henrie (Sr.)

Outlook: Cervantes, who likely will wrestle at 106 pounds this year, Anderson (138 or 145) and Henrie (160) all qualified for the Class 3A state meet last season.

They’re among five returning lettermen for the Pirates, who start the season with only a 10-man team.

“We look forward to watching our returning athletes improve on their results from last season and seeing our newer wrestlers perform at a higher level as we continue to build the program at Moapa Valley,” Houston said.
