The fact that Aptos Wrestling and Aptos Football have dominated the SCCAL the last few seasons is not an accident — it’s a program. Both are physical sports that require strength, determination and control. They are also both team sports and many of the football players are also wrestlers.
Even though wresting is just two in the ring during the match, it’s a team effort learning takedowns, escapes, pins and how to score points. Everyone on the team, no matter the weight class, is involved, and even when they aren’t wrestling, they are working hard on the sidelines supporting their teammate in the ring.
Success like this also takes one other element — a good coach. Coach Reggie Roberts has been the sparkplug behind this consistent success. He not only teaches wrestling, he teaches commitment and perseverance — and that makes all the difference.
