The Sharks achieved back-to-back wins against their cross-town rivals, making a powerful statement in this year\u2019s Battle of the Bridge.  \u201cMy athleticism and takedown offense were on display during this match against Nease. I was also able to secure some near fall points against my opponent. However, I need to work on my pinning combinations for my next match because I was unable to pin my guy and instead secured a tech fall to seal the deal.\u201d junior Emmett Hoffmann when asked on his performance that night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
