MBA finishes 3rd place in the State Duals

The MBA wrestling team opened the state duals against The McCallie School.  Although the team lost a close match by the score of 28-26, the Big Red gave it all they had in one of the most exciting matches of the tournament.  In the next match of the day, the team faced CBHS in the consolation semifinals and came away with a convincing win by a score of 43-22.  In the consolation finals MBA had to face their arch-rivals Father Ryan.  The Big Red came away with another convincing win over Ryan by the score of 43-19.  It was a tremendous effort on the boys part to accomplish so much this weekend.  We want to congratulate the success of our wrestlers.
