WALNUT – The 2023 Rio Hondo College wrestling season got off to a solid start. Competing in four dual matches at the Mt. San Antonio College Duals tournament, the Roadrunners picked up a pair of team wins.
Head coach Mike Tellez' squad beat East Los Angeles College 34-20 and defeated Sierra College 29-12. The Roadrunners had a tougher time against host Mt. SAC, falling 36-22 to its Maroon team and 30-6 to the White team.
Tellez was impressed by the opening day efforts from Devin Martinez at 141 pounds and Dylan Atherton at 125 as both went undefeated.
