The Delta Rabbits, a long time wrestling powerhouse in
Utah high school sports with 26 State titles, came to
Emery last week and administered a thumping to the Emery
wrestling team. Delta won 65-9.
Although this team still young in both school years
and experience, they fought bravely on and will be
better for having wrestled.
