Battle at the Border Recap 🐅🤼‍♂️

The Ridgefield Tigers competed hard and finished 4th overall at the Battle at the Border this weekend. Our athletes showed such heart and great sportsmanship competing in one of the toughest youth tournaments in the region.

A big thank you to the NY–CT Youth League for their leadership and support in growing the sport and bringing together such a strong wrestling community across state lines.

We also want to recognize the outstanding competition from all the teams who made this event special:
Danbury (CT) • Yorktown (NY) • Newtown (CT) • Ridgefield (CT) • Brewster (NY) • New Fairfield / Redding (CT) • Carmel (NY) • New Milford (CT)
