Sachem East, North Have Big Night at North Invitational Wrestling

Wrestlers from both high schools flex their strength over opponents from various schools in Suffolk.

The Sachem North and Sachem East Flaming Arrows flexed a bit of muscle over this past weekend with big wins at the Sachem North Invitational Wrestling Tournament.

In a story covered by Newsday, Sachem East finished the night with four champions in different weight classes, while Sachem North wracked up three 1st place winners.

"The quality of our team is great," Sachem East's Conor O'Hara told Newday. "We have a tough guy at just about every weight class. We're looking to try and place a guy at every weight class in the counties."
