SUBIACO- After being sequestered to homes during the frigid temperatures and snowfall this week, the Paris and Subiaco wrestling teams provided a much-needed break from the “cabin fever” that many Logan County residents have been experiencing as of late. The two schools competed on Thursday night at Subiaco Academy in a historic first-ever scholastic wrestling meet between two Logan County schools.
The Trojans defeated Paris on points by the score of 42-24. Paris, in their first-ever season in their program’s history, continued to take big strides under the direction of coach Andrew Cannon. In fact, Coach Cannon is starting his second program, having started the Subiaco program previously.
Both programs competed well in a highly spirited yet sportsmanlike respect for each other. The large crowd on hand was treated to exciting competition. Paris is not competing at home in its first year, and the Subiaco match provided Paris fans in particular the chance to see the team compete close to home.
RNN Sports will have a special feature on this match in next week’s RNN Logan / Franklin County newspaper. If you have not yet subscribed to the area’s only weekly newspaper focusing on LOCAL news and sports, just go to residentnewsnetwork.com/subscribe to sign-up today!
