Boonville wrestling coach Justin Hahn goes over a move with the Pirate wrestlers during practice Monday at the high school wrestling room. Hahn said 36 wrestlers participated in the first practice of the season on Monday. “We went over team rules and worked the half nelson and learned how to pin someone,” Hahn said. “This week we will cover front head locks, double legs, stand ups, arm drags and mat returns. My goal is to get the kids drilling as quickly as possible on their own.” The Boonville Pirates wrestling team will open the 2023 season on Tuesday, November 28 at home against Fatima, Higginsville and Odessa, starting at 5:30 p.m. (Photo by Chris Bowie)
