CSB Take
Cuesta Men’s Wrestling showed resilience by placing two wrestlers in the top seven at a competitive Golden Eagle Tournament. Despite the team’s overall 18-29 record, the experience gained against strong opponents like Mt San Antonio and Fresno City offers valuable growth opportunities. With upcoming meets at East Los Angeles and Santa Ana College, Cuesta has the chance to build on these efforts and enhance their performance as the season progresses.
