| Bulldog Coaches Brian Caffelle and Tye Seastedt during Chakir's final match. |
Peckham was a legend of Massachusetts Wrestling and is a member of the Massachusetts Wrestling Coaches Hall of Fame as well. The tournament has grown and evolved over the years and has also become a celebration of coach Bartosek- who is really the "father of wrestling" in Canton.
For the past 8 seasons, the Bulldogs have been coached by Brian Caffelle- one of Bartosek's most impressive wrestlers back in his wrestling days. Caffelle has done an amazing job in keeping this local tradition alive and thriving up until this very day- the 21st year.
Participating in this year's tournament were Canton, King Philip, Norton, Xaverian, Southeastern, Sharon, Milton, Mansfield, Randolph, Advanced Math and Science, and New Bedford.
Two Bulldogs earned First Place Championships in their weight class- Anis Chakir (132) and Eddie Marinilli (138). Justin Dickie took 2nd at 126.
Today's tournament used our two new state-of-the-art Wrestling mats. One which was donated by EM Duggan Company and the other through the generous donations of so many including major support from the CHS Athletic Booster Club.
As Athletic Director, I can truly say that there is no other single athletic event held at CHS each year that is as impressive, competitive and ambitious as this annual tradition. It exudes teamwork, sportsmanship, hard work, perseverance, positive culture, tradition and the positive nature of competition- all in honor of some great role models. What else can you ask from a high school athletic event/experience?
The Bulldogs are enjoying a great start to the season which has featured many wins and many competitive defeats. It's an exciting team to watch.
Missed today's action? There are plenty of opportunities to see great Wrestling action here at CHS in coming weekends this month. The team will host a Quad-match on Saturday morning, January 20th and will host the prestigious Hockomock Championship match all day on Saturday, January 27th.
