For the first time, the Cougars send a 3rd Varsity squad to the McLane Duals. After winning the tournament in its first 3 years, the 4th Annual McLane Duals was finally able to crown a new champion and the very young Cougar squad took home a 6th place. Very close to a repeat performance, a couple unexpected absences forced the Cougars to forfeit 3 weight classes which proved to be too much to overcome. Overall, excellent performance by many freshman & sophomores against other teams' best squad of juniors & seniors.
