Wrestling begins at DBHS
The Deerfield Beach Bucks are preparing for the upcoming 2023-2024 wrestling season. The team will be led by Mark Gadson, an experienced candidate with 18 years of wrestling coaching experience. Assisting will be DBHS’ very own World History teacher and wrestling coach James Forbes. Gadson, a veteran of the sport, is expected to bring his expertise to the team.
Deerfield Beach has a history of producing great wrestlers, with many of them being admitted to universities such as Florida State University (FSU) and Florida A&M University. Over the years, the Deerfield Bucks have grown, and this season is one where they all have something to prove.
“This year, we will be wrestling with a chip on our shoulder because we have something to prove. The majority of our guys and girls are veterans now, and they know what to expect from us. However, to start, our practice will be run a little differently than usual,” said Gadson.
When asked about his expectations for the upcoming season, Gadson stated, “I have high expectations for this season. I have a couple of boys and girls who should come out on top in the district.” His goal for this season is to “get a couple of boys and girls to the state championship.”
Wrestling is a sport that strengthens the mind on and off the mat. It takes a lot of hard work, discipline, and training. Although wrestling can be fun for some, it can also help them get their mind off things outside of school.
Don’t forget to mark a mental note for December 3rd. Where the Bucks will have their first meeting at 10:00 a.m. in Coral Springs. This season is going to be great and isn’t worth missing out on
