2022 Purple Roses Wrestling

Head Coach
Rob Connelley - 7th Season

Where They Open
12/18: Ewing Tournament

 

The good news to start is that the numbers are the highest they've been in a few years, and everyone in the room has some degree of experience. 

The Roses are led by 4th-year starter, team captain, Vincent Fontanez, who is looking for a big run in his final season. Juniors Jake Blomquist and Dieter Rowohlt are entering their 3rd seasons as starters and have put in the work to take the next step up in 2022. 

Also back for St. Rose is sophomore Jack Kane. Kane is coming off a terrific rookie season that saw him put up an 11-1 record. He is capable of putting up a very big year for the Roses at 126. He's one of five underclassmen in the lineup, and although he's the only one with any varsity experience, the others all have varying levels of experience prior to joining the program, which isn't always the case at St. Rose. Keep an eye on freshman Robert Connelley, who joins the program on the heels of a solid youth career.

Without enough bodies to fill all the weight cases, the Roses will be at a disadvantage in the dual season in terms of victories. As a result the team will focus on what they can control and look to compete where they do matchup minus the forfeits. There is a positive attitude and excitement in the room, and the team is setting their goals high for individual postseason placement.
