Let's Take Two
What a year it's started off to be as the Cougars capture their 3rd and 4th tournament victories...on the same weekend? For the first time in school history, the Clovis team captured TWO 40-team varsity tournament titles with two different teams at the same time.
Wrestling at the Western Invitational for the first time, the Cougars sent 12 wrestlers and placed 11 over the two-day event. Sonny Cervantes (130), Blake Thompson (152), and Tyler Ceremello (160) brought home tournament titles and team ran away with the championship, winning 234 to 159.5 over 2nd place Central Catholic. Cougar placers included:
103 - Xesus Velarde 3rd
112 - Lane McAlester 3rd
119 - Ben Omata 3rd
125 - Jason Ladd 7th
130 - Sonny Cervantes 1st
145 - Colby Thompson 5th
152 - Blake Thompson 1st
160 - Tyler Ceremello 1st
171 - Ryan Davies 7th
215 - Daren Barbo 4th
285 - Max Howard 4th
Competing at the annual Zinkin Classic at Buchanan High School, the other Cougar varsity squad won the tournament in dominating fashion for only the 3rd time in school history (the other two being the state championship seasons of 2002-2003 and 2007-2008). Like the Western Invitational, 3 Cougars took home tournament titles: Jonas Gaytan (103), Daniel Gaytan (112), and Tommy Burriel (189). The team won the tournament championship by 59 points with 12 place winners over Top 5 teams in the state Bakersfield and host Buchanan. Cougars placers included:
103 - Jonas Gaytan 1st
112 - Daniel Gaytan 1st
125 - Devin Everk 4th
130 - Juan Salas 3rd
135 - Brady Bersano 4th
140 - Alec Dieter 2nd
145 - Chase Bohny 5th
160 - Dakota Gordon 5th
171 - Zach Nevills 5th
189 - Tommy Burriel 1st
215 - Taylor Ferguson 2nd
285 - Devon Barbo 6th

Impressive Weekend for Clovis Squad
Starting off on Thursday, the Cougar JV squad dominated the competition at Madera South, winning all 5 duals by a sizeable margin of victory.
The Clovis West Shootout is widely considered the toughest dual tournament in the state of California. It is difficult to win every year, with a full team. On Friday and Saturday, the Clovis team was missing 7 of their best wrestlers, competing nationally at the Ironman Tournament in Ohio. Despite that fact, the depth of the team really showed as the Cougars continued their 27-match dual win streak, dating back to January 24th, 2006, and dismantled the opposition in the 6 duals, winning by an average of 44 points per dual against some of the state’s best teams. The team scored a whopping 337 points in 6 duals while allowing a total of only 71. Thanks to the Shootout squad for picking up the slack, the Clovis High Wrestling Team now has a dual win streak of 33 consecutive matches spanning nearly 4 years all while wrestling in the toughest league in the state!
Clovis West Shootout Results:
RD1: Clovis 38 - Laguna Hills 25
RD2: Bye
RD3: Clovis 51 - Bella Vista 9
RD4: Clovis 66 - Ventura 6
RD5: Clovis 39 - Vacaville 18
RD6: Clovis 76 - Gilroy 3
RD7: Clovis 67 - El Dorado 10
Missing from the Shootout were 7 wrestlers that braved the elements to challenge themselves against the nation’s best at the Ironman Tournament in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio at Walsh Jesuit High School. An unanimous choice for the top high school wrestling tournament in the country, the experience did not disappoint and neither did the Cougars. With only 7 wrestlers, the team took home 11th place in a field that includes National Prep schools, a heavy dose of private schools, and many of the best wrestling teams in the country. Of the 7 wrestlers, all but one came within 1 match of placing in the Top 8. The Clovis team took home 4 medals, highlighted by a 5-fall, 3rd place performance by senior Tommy Burriel, which drew considerable interest from the 70+ college coaches in attendance.

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.

RD3 - Clovis 58 - Edison 21
