Senior Wrestler Becomes All-Time Career Winner
On January 24, Hen Hud senior wrestler Beckett Herman won his 130th career match. This victory put him at the top of the list for career wins in the school’s wrestling history. Kevin McDermott, class of 2013, held the previous record, with 129 wins.
The victory took place in the semifinals of the Edgemont Wrestling Tournament semifinals, a tournament Herman would go on to win. After the match, Kevin McDermott was on hand to present Beckett with his congratulatory plaque.
Head Coach Shane Turrone, Class of 2007, with 108 career wrestling wins himself, joined Herman and McDermott with Assistant Coach Dennis Wolownik on the mat to celebrate this tremendous accomplishment.
“Beckett is one in a million, the kind of athlete every coach dreams of having on their team,” said Turrone. “Throughout his wrestling career he has shown how dedicated he is by consistently putting in the extra time and effort to hone his skill and be the best he can possibly be. His drive, perseverance and leadership skills are unparalleled.”
