Pleasantville HS Hosts Inaugural Youth Wrestling Tournament

The first-annual Pleasantville Youth Wrestling Tournament drew 288 boys and girls between the ages of five and 12 to Pleasantville High School on Sunday morning. The screetchy sounds of blowing whistles were at times drowned out by screaming coaches and parents at the action-filled event. Competitors came from Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, Dutchess and Fairfield counties. They competed in five divisions based on age, with each division broken down into matches based on weight. The event was hosted by Pleasantville Youth Wrestling.
