What They're Saying
Coach Kyle Ruschell on wrestling at a home away from home this week:
"The Bradley County wrestling community has been so important to our program. From our alumni to their coaching staffs, there's a lot of ties back and forth between Chattanooga, Cleveland and Bradley County. The whole area is super important to our history, and so it's just something cool that we wanted to try this year and go out there and wrestle at a high school in an area that we know is passionate about wrestling while also giving a little nod towards our alumni and our fans there."
