2012-2013 Jennings County Wrestling

The 2012-13 Panther squad has some pretty big shoes to fill coming off of such a successful season last year.   In the 2011-12 campaign, they finished second in conference, first in sectionals, and nearly qualified for what may have been the last team state tournament.  However, the Panthers, who had 9 sectional winners last year, return five of those sectional champs (G. Engelking, Montgomery, Holwager, G. Wilson, and L. Luhn).  To complement this solid core of wrestlers, jennings has a full den of hungry underclassmen including a large and talented junior group.  To open up the season, the varisty faced off with some solid talent at New Castle taking home the team championship, while the reserves wrestled very well in our JV invite. 

It should be another exciting JC wrestling season.  Check out the rest of the website for details throughout the season!

HHC Individual Championships

With many pointing to the Panther's ability to stack up well in individual tournaments, J.C. seems to be one of the favorites to take home a HHC Conference Championship.  But if it were already set in stone, then we wouldn't need to wrestle.  The Panthers are taking that message to heart, hoping to show this weekend that they can and will fulfill their potential.  We hope to see as many Panther fans as possible to make the trip to New Albany.  Let's make it seem like we're back here in Jennings County!!  Wrestling starts on Saturday at 9:30 A.M.
