As you can see in the photo below, it was awarded in 1971-72. The recipient was Senior Ralph Terrell who wrestled at  215 pounds. During conversations with Ralph and other alumni at the recent get-together, Some of the history of the original orins of WHAZZOO was discussed. The original spelling was acually WHAZZO with only a single "O". The 1 "O" was for opponents. The new version with 2 O's came into existence at a later date. I'm sure there is more history to be learned, but it was great being able to share the photo of the trophy and learning more about the proud history of Hurricane Wrestling!

Coach Bass thought that was a great idea and would like to invite our alumni THIS WEDNESDAY (1/18) to Claddaugh in Westhampton Beach in conjunction with Senior night against Sayville. The JV will wrestle at 4:30pm and the Varsity is scheduled to wrestle at 6:00pm, . The Coaches will head over to Claddaugh after the matches and Senior presentations. Our best guess for a start time is 8pm. We hope to see as many of you at the match as possible!!]]><![CDATA[2016-17 Season Alumni night to be held on 1/7/2017]]>Sat, 19 Nov 2016 16:25:00 GMThttp://whb-wrestling.com/alumni/2016-17-season-alumni-night-to-be-held-on-172016

(If anyone has any actual numbers, just let me know). Those in attendance certainly didn't leave disappointed, but may have left without voices after all of the cheering that culminated in the final deafening roar when the Hurricanes beat Longwood in the last match to capture the cup! 

The evening "social" organized by 1976 grads Arum Terchunian & Bob Culver was a great time and seemed pretty well attended. First year Longwood wrestling Coach Jonathan Gress, a 2005 WHB grad and former Hurricane wrestler even came to join in the festivities. That was impressive considering the tough loss earlier in the day. It's a great time to catch up with those you haven't seen in a while. This is a great event that I hope continues in the future. Thanks again Arum and Bob.

Another HUGE shout out to Hurricane wrestling supporter Joe Grady and his Hurricane Deli that supplied all of the food for the event. Joe has done a great deal for the team this year. In addition, he opens early EVERY match and tournament day to allow our wrestlers and parents to get breakfast at ungodly hours. We appreciate all he and his staff does to support us and I hope that everyone frequents the Hurricane Deli for their own needs when possible to say thank you!]]>
