From the Sidelines: In his freshman year, Ruben has made his presence felt on the wrestling mats. Through the first three weeks of competitions he has amassed an overall record of 9-0 with an impressive 9 pins. He has emerged as a team leader and holds himself and his teammates to a high standard on the mats, classroom, and community. He recently won the prestigious White River Classic besting some of the finest 120-pounders in the state while earning the highly coveted WR Classic Cowboy Hat. Great job, Ruben!
