KELLY BENTON
Wrestling Coach 6 years "I am here to win, plain and simple, but I want to do more than just have a winning program. I want to develop a relationship with the student athletes that will last forever. I want to help turn them into responsible young men; young men that will know how to overcome adversity, how to respect people and what it takes to be successful in life." We have returning to the squad, two state qualifiers, Coy Moran and Hazen Benton. Both have a good shot at finding themselves back at the 2017 State Championships this year. Moran has his sights on competing at 170 this year and Benton will be at 120. Both are strong wrestlers with a can-do attitude that should help them get where they want to be. Going into a new league this year will be difficult for us to compete as a team but we should see the majority of the guys with individual placings. |
