Darien wrestling coach Greg Lewis was “through the roof.”
His Blue Wave had just defeated Norwalk 33-30 in the team’s opening dual meet on Dec. 13, and there was plenty to celebrate for a program which had just one previous win over a five-year span.
“I told these kids this already is something special,” said Lewis, adding that the Wave hadn’t won a home opener since 2009. “In light of where the Darien program has been, this is one for the record books and now how far we want to go is up to you guys. The kids are totally buying into the program and the success.”
