Go young Wolves!

The FCLMC Wolves wrestling is comprised of three school districts: Fillmore Central, Lanesboro, and Mabel-Canton. The youth wrestling program is open to any child in kindergarten through sixth grade. To promote a team approach to learning the basic skills of wrestling, the youth team is led by Head Coach Paul Snell and coaches Jason Hovey, Mark Hovland, Troy Knox, Blaise Sass, Adam Daniels, Dana Coaty, Kyle Ryan, Chase Christopher, and Mike Tollefson. The dedication of these individuals and parents of our students allows this program to offer a 4:1 ratio on learning the skills to promote a great youth team! To build a successful program, you need a great support system and that’s what they have at FCLMC.

While they continue to grow the program, the primary goal is for wrestlers to have fun. Four years ago the year ended with 35 kids. This year there are currently 64 kids on the roster! Throughout each practice they focus on body movement, basic fundamentals of wrestling, and conditioning with games, which is fun for the kids as a team!

The Wolves program encourages participation in team tournaments with other schools. This is a great opportunity for wrestlers to utilize the skills they have learned and cheer on their teammates.

The goals the FCLMC wrestling program continues to focus on are creating a team environment, promoting self confidence, a sense of belonging, and a network of friends. They continue the commitment of building and sustaining a youth program that will not only be successful, but will follow through to the high school level. The support of this program is greatly appreciated!
