Only two Mount Si seniors were on the squad to end the 2015-16 season. Andrew Harris and Kurtis Olson provided steady leadership and both piled up lots of wins for the scrappy Wildcats. As expected, Andrew dominated all season and Kurtis took the bull by the horns during his final season, improving immensely from his junior year; coming just a hair away from winning KingCo. The Snoqualmie Valley wrestling community wishes Andrew all the best as he studies engineering at WSU and to Kurtis as he prepares himself to become a first responder.
The Mount Si Wrestling team capped off the 2015-16 campaign with two state placers as both Andrew Harris and Junior Mason Marenco ended their seasons by placing 6th at the Dome.
