It's that time of the year again when the both the Pearl City Chargers boys and girls wrestling teams step it up a notch as they prepare for a run at Oahu Interscholastic Association varsity team and individual championship titles.
In last weekend's OIA Western Division Championships, the Lady Chargers won individual titles in four different weight classes. The boys brought home one individual championship title won by Jackson Fuamatu in the 223 Lbs. weight class (FALL 3:31). The boys are also the defending 2014 HHSAA State Champions.
Campbell won both the boys and girls OIA Western Division team titles last weekend at Aiea High School.
This weekend's OIA Varsity Team & Individual Championship Tournament begins tomorrow, Friday from 12:30pm and Saturday from 11:00am at Leilehua High School.
GO CHARGERS!
