🚨 TEAM CAMP 1 UPDATE 🚨
Losing a generational Class of 2026, how will the Grizzlies respond… The growth I witnessed in 4 days from our men was as great as I’ve EVER seen. Great foundation to build on! There is URGENCY, INTENSITY, FOCUS & a DESIRE to be elite! The standard of work has been set, these men have been a part of that build. We’ll continue to GRIND OUT GREAT DAYS to make the great city of Wadsworth proud this fall!


A SPECIAL thank you to our Camp Shirt sponsors that EVERY Grizzly in our program will proudly wear this year.
