Waverly-Shell Rock Wrestling and its affiliate club, Waverly Area Wrestling Club (WAWC) have completed one of, if not, its most impressive season ever! WSR Wrestling saw tremendous successes from its High School Boys’ and Girls’ Programs, while the WAWC turned in impressive results from its youth boys’ and girls’ programs. To have this level of success at all levels in the wrestling program it takes a tremendous amount of selfless commitment from our high school and club coaching staffs as well as our WAWC Board Members. WAWC and WSR Wrestling would also like to thank other club coaches such as Sebolt, Big Game, Immortal and The Burg for the impact they have had on our WSR/WAWC members’ success. There are many hands to help lead an individual to success, and we are proud to say WAWC is doing it as well as any club in the country. Below is a list of accomplishments for our High School Boys and Girls and Waverly Area Wrestling Club’s Youth.
