The DGS Wrestling program has won the West Suburban Conference Gold title in six of the last seven seasons and have had an All-State wrestler in eleven of the last twelve seasons. Proceeds from the Pork Fundraiser will go to providing food (healthy options) bins for the athletes for each of our meets, Varsity trip to Soddy Daisy Tournament in TN, off-season trips/training opportunities including Freestyle/Greco State and the WI Dells Team Duals Camp, and additional awards throughout the season and for our end of the year awards night.

The 50 plus members (20 student coaches) of the D99 program have a variety of special needs ranging from learning disabilities, physical disabilities,  Autism, intellectual disabilities and other areas of need.  Each year the D99 Hoops program participates in a full schedule of home and away games which lead up to the IL Special Olympics State Basketball Tournament in which the D99 Hoops Team has been represented in each of the last six seasons, including a State Championship in 2014 and a runner-up finish in 2015, and a State Championship in 2017.  Proceeds from the Pork Fundraiser will go towards purchasing new uniforms/warm-ups, new basketballs, and their travel costs associated with the IL Special Olympics State Basketball Tournament which takes place in Normal, IL on the campus of Illinois State University.
