San Manuel Miners
San Manuel wrestler Devin Cruz (195) pinned her opponent from Canyon del Oro high school in her first match of the season during a multi-meet at Vista Grande on Dec. 13.
Cruz, who battled back after suffering a knee injury prior to the start of the season, was met with cheers and hugs from her teammates following the win.
The Miners as team didn’t fair nearly as well in team results, largely due to traveling with only seven healthy wrestlers.
Vista Grande and Canyon del Oro both handily defeated the Miners.
Jayden Smith (182), Ruben Hernandez (195) and Adrian Romero (220) each went 2 – 0 at the meet.
The Miners will be on break until Wednesday, Dec. 27, when they travel to Miami for holiday multi-meet.
