Wrestling

Recently held the Flyer Classic Sat. Dec. 9. Due to the absence of key wrestlers, the tournament didn’t go exactly as planned for the Flyers, but the excitement was still palpable inside the gym as the matches went on.

"The atmosphere was awesome and the LHS student body was very supportive of our team, even though we took 5th place," said Sam Farazmand (12).

Girls’ Swimming
