VALLEY

Head coach: Tyler Perry, second season

Returning lettermen: Four

Top wrestlers: Xzavier Maheia (Jr.), Joseph Valencia (Jr.), Gerardo Munguia (Jr.), John Baloyot (So.)

Outlook: The Vikings return just four lettermen, but will rely heavily on juniors Valencia, who likely will wrestle at 138 pounds, and Maheia (145).

“Both kids have been wrestling year round, as well as representing Team Nevada at Fargo (North Dakota) this summer,” Perry said. “We have had a great offseason and preseason.”
