Huntington Wrestlers Climb in Rankings
Numerous Huntington High School wrestlers are ranked among Suffolk’s best in the latest poll posted on the Long Island Wrestling Association website (www.longislandwrestling.org).
Jose Vasquez (1st-103 lbs.), Damon McQueen (2nd-96 lbs.), Francisco Pereira (2nd-119 lbs.) and Dashaun Thomas (2nd-215 lbs.) are all listed in the most recent ranking.
Noticeably missing in the ranking is Huntington freshman Nigel McNeil, who has been turning heads for the past two months with his sharp wrestling. Last year as an eighth grader, the budding Blue Devil star went 17-7 on the varsity and finished second in the league tournament.
Huntington is ranked fourth in the Suffolk dual meet rankings and sixth in the tournament rankings. The Blue Devils are tied for 30th in the New York State Sportswriters’ Association large school team rankings.
