At Warren there originally was a coed team of boys and girls for wrestling, But now things have changed, this is the first year with 2 different teams, taught by 2 separate people. Majority of the time wrestling practice will be Monday-Friday from 4-6pm. Except on days of meets, the schedule will run a bit differently. The first meet of the season will be Wednesday November 26th at 9:00 AM, at Rockford East High School. Make sure you’re there!!
