3/29/18 - FIRST ANNUAL MOORE ELEMENTARY WRESTLING LEAGUE A HUGE SUCCESS!
The first annual Moore Elementary Wrestling League Championship was a huge success! We had close to 125 wrestlers from Hartstern, Luhr, Smyrna, and Wilt compete to determine who was the best 3rd grade school, 4th grade, 5th grade, and overall. Most importantly we competed to have a fun!
Smyrna won the 3rd grade, 5th grade, and overall championship. Hartstern placed 2nd overall. Luhr won the 4th grade championship. Wilt had the smallest squad but wrestled very hard!! Hartstern looked very good with their Hartstern Wrestling shirts! Way to go Principal Wright and Coach Wright!!!
Thanks to Mr. Pennick, Mr. Aberli, Mrs. Schroering, Mrs. Campisano, Mr. Wright, Mrs. Geary, and Mrs. Graf for letting the students at your schools have this opportunity!

MOORE ELEMENTARY WRESTLING LEAGUE
The Moore Elementary Wrestling League is a 5 week league that focuses on introducing the sport of wrestling to 3rd-5th grade students. The wrestlers will practice once a week in the gym after school. On the 5th week the wrestlers will participate in “The Main Event”. This event will take place at Marion C. Moore School and wrestlers from the 4 participating schools (Hartstern, Luhr, Smyrna, Wilt) will take on each other. A similar league is done across the river at Jeffersonville. The kids have a blast learning a new sport and then competing in front of family, friends, and teachers. Ribbons will be given to individual wrestlers at the Main Event and Trophies will be given to the school with the top 3rd grade, 4th grade, 5th grade, and overall team.
