Coaches and booster representatives asked the committee to support Patriot High’s wrestling program as participation has grown dramatically. Co-head coach John Fierro said the program now serves many more girls and that the booster club just formed to help with equipment and staffing needs.
"We started out with about 20 boys and 2 girls... and over the last 4 years, we now this year coming into about a program of 75, may exceed a 100," Coach John Fierro said, describing rapid growth. Fierro estimated the average family cost for participation, including specialized backpacks, headgear and other equipment, could be about $600 per wrestler and said coaches often subsidize expenses out of pocket.
