The Ralston Valley wrestling team goes through arguably more rigorous training for the season than any other sport.
Wrestling, known most for its physical nature, requires a commitment like no other. Teh Wrestling team trains for the season unlike anything i have ever heard of. Players must often lose large amounts of weight in order to wrestle at the correct weight requirement. The workouts themselves involve lost of cardio activity including, sprints, suicides, and running the stairs at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. When asked about the training, senior Greg “Bonesaw” Raffield had much to say. “When we workout it ain’t hard for me, but I look to my left and I look to my right, and they’re all bleeding, they’re all working 3000% and in that one hour of conditioning we’ll lose more weigh than most athletes do in a week.” Obviouly these players train hard and hope it will help them in their upcoming season.
