Father Ryan wrestlers named among nation’s best
Two Father Ryan High School students were recently named in Wrestling USA Magazine’s “Nation’s Best High School Wrestlers,” according to Jim McIntyre, school president.
Rising senior Patrick Marchetti was given special mention for the best 2008 high school juniors. Wes Wesley, a rising sophomore, was also given special mention for the best 2008 high school sophomores and freshmen. Each student is one of only four wrestlers in their class from Tennessee to be listed.
This past year, both Marchetti and Wesley were champions in their individual weight classes at the TSSAA Division II State Wrestling Tournament in Chattanooga.
Eligibility for “Nation’s Best High School Wrestlers” was determined from each honoree’s achievements in wrestling. These factors included accomplishments at the state high school championships (folkstyle), National Junior Freestyle and Greco-Roman success, placement at the Cadet National Dual Championship, performances at prestigious high school tournaments, information from coaches and parents, and the state from which nominees hail.
Around 260,000 students participated in wrestling at the high school level in 2007 and less than 1 percent were recognized among the “Nation’s Best High School Wrestlers.”
