Bryce Wells was happy to be back on the field after missing more than three weeks of action.
The Milford High senior midfielder scored a hat trick in his first bit of action since suffering a shoulder injury March 29 as his Bucs defeated Sussex Central High 22-1 at Briggs Stadium Wednesday night.
“It feels pretty good being back out here with my brothers,” said Wells. “I missed them, it was a long three weeks, I can tell you that, but being back out here and playing with them was exciting … It’s definitely a big confidence-booster we needed it. We lost a few games by one or two goals, but it feels good to get a win against a conference team.”
In a wrestling season that many people thought wouldn’t happen, Milford not only had a solid season, but also faired quite well in the just completed Delaware State Wrestling Tournament. The Buccaneers had four wrestlers qualify for the finals, with junior Jack Thode and senior Trent Grant gaining individual tiles. This year with the team championships also being scored in the individual tournament, Milford would finish third in Division I, behind Cape Henlopen and Salesianum. “I was very happy with how we did this year considering all the obstacles we faced as a team. It took a great deal of hard work on the part of everyone in the Delaware wrestling community to pull this off. At the end of the day, it would have been nice to finish higher but considering we really didn’t have any depth in the upper weights, I think we exceeded our expectations,” coach Don Parsley said.
