This past weekend we attended Cosmic Clash in Denver, CO with 8 of our wrestlers. We wrestled in the dark under black lights and got a taste of some new wrestlers we’ve never seen before. It was an awesome experience and we hope to do it again. We are hungry to wrestle the best out there!!! Out of 203 teams we placed 6 with only 8 wrestlers on our roster. Individually we brought home many new national placements as well:

Champs:
🥇Mason
🥇Jackson

2nd Place:
🥈Liam
🥈🥈Roman x2

3rd Place:
🥉 Roman

4th Place:

Thank you to one of our Coaches, Caleb Hall, for his dedication to not only our community but our country as a whole, and for raising awareness on such an important day in history.

We are grateful and lucky to have such great role models like Coach Caleb involved in our program.

United States Marine Corps Sergeant Caleb Hall spoke to Upper School about patriotism and about his call to serve our country. He reminded our students that every time they hear the national anthem, or each morning when we say the Pledge of Allegiance, to think about the freedoms we experience everyday and the people that fight for those freedoms.
We are grateful for Calebs service and we remember those who were impacted by the events of September 11th.
Caleb was a geospatial intelligence supervisor with the United States Marine Corps for nearly nine years. He served on a combat tour in Iraq and is proud of his country and his team for their sacrifice. Caleb is our Facilities Director, the varsity wrestling head coach, football assistant coach, and father to Jonathan Benavides ’30.

We welcomed some new members into the Gulf Coast family for the weekend at Deep South National duals and had such a great time. We had some crazy matches and memorable experiences doing so. This was the most fun I’ve ever had at a duals tournament and hope we can continue bonding and competing with all who came in. Good job Gulf Coast, let’s continue to grow this sport and elevate the level of competition out there!
