After last week’s CIF individual wrestling tournaments, here are the qualifiers from the Inland Valley for the Masters Meet which begins Friday at Carter High School. Top 9 in each weight class advance to the state meet in Bakersfield Feb. 29-March 1 up from 8. There are a total of 36 from the area and 30 percent (nine of 30 in each weight class) advance to state. If that percentage holds true for the Inland Valley, 10 or 11 local wrestlers will go to state. Let’s see if it’s accurate..
By the way, as a follow up to the story I did last week on the Harper/Cataline wrestling family from Roosevelt, two of the brothers (Dylan Cataline and Nikko Cataline) qualified for Masters.
*receives first-round bye, so they need to just win their first two matches to make the semifinals and guarantee a spot at state.
