Happy Thursday, Omelette friends! Today is the day — Day 1 of the CHSAA state wrestling tournament. It runs Thursday through Saturday in Denver at Pepsi Center.
Student athletes from across the state have their eyes set on competing in the annual tournament at “The Can.” If you don’t have plans the next three days, I suggest you make a trip downtown to watch some wrestling. Here’s a look at prep wrestling content and storylines you may have missed from earlier in the season:
