Thompson Valley hosting wrestling triangluar with Pomona, Brush

Three of the state’s best wrestling teams will be on display in a big-time inter-classification meet on Friday when Thompson Valley hosts Pomona and Brush.

The host Eagles are ranked No. 2 in the most recent Class 4A rankings provided by On The Mat. Pomona is ranked fourth in 5A, while Brush is No. 1 in 3A.

“It should be a great night of wrestling,” Thompson Valley athletic director Ernie Derrera wrote in an email.

The triangular meet begins at 5 p.m. at Thompson Valley High School.

“We will wrestle in a rotating format so that no team is sitting out for a length of time,” Derrera said.

For example, Brush will wrestle Pomona at 106 pounds, Thompson Valley vs. Brush at 113, and Pomona vs. Thompson Valley at 119.
