The undefeated Conference Champion Sultan Turk wrestlers strode into the Tacoma Dome on Friday with high hopes, only to be wrecked by the stellar competition and breadth of wrestling talent at the Washington State Mat Classic XXV Championship. This unique event brings all of the elite-level high school wrestlers together in one place, at one time for a two-day wrestlefest to decide the best in Washington. The Turks came away with 7 points total and none of the five wrestlers advanced beyond the second bouts on Friday morning.
