| 2020-2021 Outlook | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Keys to success in the 2020-21 season: | |||||||||||||||||||||
| In order for our program to continue to have success we have had the past 2 seasons, we are going to need our seniors to continue to improve and have state success, we will need our younger kids who have been very successful on the JV to step up and compete at the Varsity level. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Concerns about the lineup or challenges for the team this season: | |||||||||||||||||||||
| I think this years line up will be one of our most solid top to bottom that we have every had. Our biggest obstacle will be the COVID-19 stuff and possible shut down which is what most teams will be concerned about. We want to keep our kids healthy and safe so that they can achieve their personal goals in February. I think we will also be class 3 this year which will be a different look with some different challenges as well. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Please list any impact freshman or transfers | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Forrest McMannes Izik Simms |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| How will the newcomers/transfers help? | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Forrest has been a part of the Bolivar program for years and has showed continued improvement since I have been here. I think he would have finished his youth season very positively last if not for the pandemic. I think he will fit in at 106 very nicely. Izik is one our most accomplish youth wrestlers to date, I think he was on the verge of a youth State championship last year ( Bolivars first) if not for the Pandemic. Izik will fill in at 195 or 220 pounds this season. |

| We would like to continue to be a top ten team and attempt to make it 3 years in a row bring home hardware from the State tournament. | |||||||||||||||||||||
