Naperville Central Wrestling Looks forward to 2019-2020 Season

Naperville Central is gearing up for the start of the 2019-2020 wrestling season.  There are plenty of returning starters from a successful 2019 campaign.  Tyler Driessens leads the way for the Redhawks as a returning state qualifier and DVC Champions.  Returning sectional qualifiers include Tommy Porter, Leo Keating, and Ryan Silva.  Porter is a returning DVC champion as well.  Both Porter and Driessens wrestled at the Junior National Championships this summer.  Elrin Esporlas and Angelo Eklou are two year starters and both return for their senior years.  Senior Carson Enfield and junior Shane Roth round off the returners.  Several wrestlers look to compete at the varsity level this year including seniors Bryce Cooperkawa, Tariq Sikander.

The season includes home duals against DVC foes Waubonsie Valley and Neuqua Valley (senior night).  The Redhawks will also play host to Wheaton North as well.  Tournaments include Hoffman Estates, DeKalb Dual Tournament, Mahomet-Seymour and the DVC championships.  The Hawks open with Batavia, Downers Grove South, and Blue Island Eisenhower on November 30th.  The first practice is November 11.
