"Juan Lopez, a senior, wrestled at regionals last year. Has been doing a great job so far this sea- son. "Jacob Nikolaisen placed at the regional tournament last year and was very close to making it to the state meet as well. He's a senior.

He wrestled at regionals last year as well. SO REALLY LOADED, ex- perience-wise? The Climbers as a team? "Uh-huh," says Coach. "A lot of experience back." Perhaps the most here in years, even? "Yes it is," says Lacy. "A few years ago we had a team that was like this. But not a lot of those kids actually made it into the room that year." To their credit, adds Coach, this season's bunch appears to suffer no such disinclination when it comes to committing to that infamous padded wing of the Minidome. And that alone bodes well, he assures. "AND THEN WE'VE got a good group o' young kids comin' up that have already shown some prom- ise and done some good things for us," says Lacy - and he introduces them: "Josh Ackley, a ninth-grader, is doin' really well. Westin Chavez is showin' a lot of promise. He's a junior - at heavyweight - and has really improved a lot. Hyun Jin Cheoh is a foreign-exchange stu- dent from Korea, and he's never wrestled before. But he's a quick learner. "Jonathan Free has been doin' a nice job. He's a sophomore. Taylor Gettle is a freshman at 189, and he's really doin' good work for us. Adam Golder is a junior at 215 and 285. Jesse Matz is a newcom- er. Senior. "Norah Montoya is a freshman at 119. Doug Pala has shown a lot of promise for a sophomore, at 125. Sheridan Peckham is doing very well at 119. He's a freshman. "DAMION SHEHAN is al- ready in our varsity lineup. He's a sophomore. Had a great season at the junior high last year. He's wrestlin' 145 for us right now, and he's a sophomore. "Michael Tratnick is back out after wrestling a lot as a kid, and he's a sophomore at 189. Nathan VanCleave is a big 'ol sophomore at 285. Alex Woods had a big vic- tory for us last weekend. He's a sophomore, and he wrestles 160. And Chris Yando is a ninth-grader at 103." AND HOW DOES Lacy char- COACH CHRIS LACY puts his hands together for a job well done dur- ing the Climbers' home opener last Thursday against North Thurston. That's senior Isaac Garfias (left) stalking his 215-pound rival in the in- set and Shelton teammates Logan Roadman (escaping, right) and Sarah Brownstein (scissoring out, left) battling their respective Ram foes in the nearmost shots. acterize this Climber contingent? "This group o' kids has really worked hard," he says. "And espe- cially the remaining kids from last year's team. They're really close, and they're a very focused group onto what they want to accomplish as a team. They understand their most important thing is to have indi- vidual goals and reach them, but as a team they care a lot about each other and have worked really hard. "So it's gonna be a lot of fun this year." BACK TO COACH alongside Lacy this season are veterans Roger Wilson, Rodgar Garrick and Mike Gettle along with volunteers James Hartley and Nick Stigall. And joining the team this year as a volunteer as well is Coach Wil- son's son, Lanny. Team managers are Brittany Mills, Brittany Chamberlin and Mattie Sobotka.
