While the girsl were competing in the sectionals, the Mission boys were in the Colt Tournament at El Camino High School, and once again several wrestlers who have trained with Alliance took home medals: Ulfido Juarez the silver, Edilzer ‘Oaxaco’ Juarez and Jaime Loo took fifth, and Chiluugen Tumurchudur took eighth. Denial Peña was on his way to a seventh place finish when he dislocated his elbow. GGWC hopes for s peedy recovery for Daniel.
