Of all the sports that have been adversely affected by Covid 19, probably none have been hit any harder than prep wrestling.
A lot of dual meets and all tournaments have been trashed and there have been times when teams went weeks without even practicing.

They had their usual dual meet at Baylor Friday evening and it was more different than any in recent memory.
