Wrestling season is still three months away, but Alta Loma’s boys team looks like it will be especially strong.
Zander Silva, who spent his freshman year at Alta Loma and was a CIF-SS runner-up that year, before becoming a state placer the last two years at San Marino, is back at Alta Loma for his senior season. Silva was seventh in the state last year at 126 pounds.
His San Marino teammate, Tino Lopez, was hurt for CIF last year, but as a freshman two years ago was sixth in CIF at 106 pounds.
A third wrestler, Daniel Galvan, was second in CIF last year at 106 pounds as a sophomore while wrestling for Rowland.
All three, who wrestled for coach T.J. Dawson prior to high school, are now at Alta Loma. Silva and Lopez have had their transfers approved while Galvan’s is still pending.
