DGS Summer Camp Updates

2016-2017 DGS Wrestling Season Review

It was a great year for the 2016-2017 Downers Grove South Wrestling program!  Program numbers surged to over 90 wrestlers, which was an all-time high for the program.  The program not only broke records in terms of participation, but also laid the foundation for years to come with a very successful season on ALL levels.  We wanted to not only thank our wrestlers for their efforts on the season, but also the families of the wrestlers for their tireless support throughout the season (and off-season).

Below you will find the award winners from the 2016-2017 season:
