Contreras’ state-run ends, future bright for Porcupine wrestling

Springtown sophomore Dominic Contreras saw his run at the UIL Class 5A State Wrestling Tournament come to an end on the opening day, finishing 1-2 in one of the state’s toughest divisions, 5A wrestling.

Despite the early exit, head coach Cooper Sawyer emphasized the significance of the accomplishment.

“This is a huge accomplishment to make it to the state tournament, something very few wrestlers ever do,” Sawyer said. “Doing it as a sophomore shows where Dominic is headed. We’ll be back with unfinished business.”
