Season Outlook:
The YCP Wrestling team looks to build upon a successful 2016-17 season as they return a NCAA National Qualifier and a 2x All American in junior, Greg Warner. Warner (2X All American), senior John Shorter (3x Mideast Regional Placewinner), and sophomore Stefanos Karpontinis (2016 Mideast Regional Placewinner) will lead the way for the Spartans.

8 of 10 starters return from last years squad that saw went 14-4 in dual meet action. The goals are simple for this years squad and that is to become NCAA National Champions and All Americans as well as compete for an NCAA Team Trophy and Southeast Regional Title.

The Spartans coaching staff will also look upon a solid recruiting class as well as some returners that include state qualifiers, place winners, and state champs to help push returners and look for starting roles.
