500 Wins for Coach Lovello

Congratulations to Coach Sam Lovello on achieving an amazing 500 career wins yesterday at the Twin Valley Raider Duals.  He becomes only the 6th PA coach to have accomplished this.  Thanks to Coach for all the years of dedication and service to our high school team.  Imagine the number of  "teaching moments" in 37 years!

The Twin Valley Wrestling community did a great job of acknowledging this milestone, stopping the tournament to recognize Coach Lovello and award him a certificate and team picture.

The Bullets went 4-1 for the day losing only to James Coughlin High School in the final dual of the day 39-31.  Probably the most exciting match of the day was when the Bullets beat Twin Valley by 1 point, coming down to the last match.  Again, the Bullets showed a lot of heart during this match, especially junior wrestler Zach Sessions.

We went old school for Coach 500th win and dug out a photo from a SV match.   It shows the enthusiasm he still has for this sport, even after 500 wins and 37 years.
