Elks Wrestling
One of the groups I used to belong to was my high school wrestling team, the “Elks.” Our group was comprised of the coaches, trainers, wrestlers, and stat girls. Together we made up an effective group and it was shown by us getting first place in our league championship.

We all became better and helped one another to become very good wrestlers. This enabled us to eventually be one of the best high school wrestling teams in our state. We won our...
