2025-2026 Varsity Results​
Week of 1/19 - 1/24 results
We started the week off with a very tough dual against Vista Del Lago. We went up big early, and then they fought back and took the lead and it came down to a few matches that we lost. Our girls did pick up a win over Vista Del Lago
​
On the weekend, we sent our varsity boys (with a few extras) and varsity girls to the Mid Cals Tournament at Gilroy High School. There were 86 teams in attendance and we had a very fun time. Myleigh Litsas finished in 3rd place and Sadie Keough finished in the top 12. On the boys side, Aris Gordon finished in the top 12, Ben Jesus finished in 8th place, and Elias Castaneda finished in 3rd place. All of the boys and girls wrestled very well and fought extremely hard and I had a great trip with the teams. I am very proud. The boys finished in 12th place out of 86 teams.

Week 6 Results
Varsity boys attended the Tim Brown Memorial this weekend, which had 90 schools in attendance. We wrestled well and had 9 boys qualify for day 2 of the tournament. Multiple kids were within one match of medaling and Matt Powers finished in 7th place. The team finished in 25th place, without 3 starters competing.
​
Elias Castaneda went to the Doc Buchanan tournament in Clovis this weekend; the toughest high school tournament in the nation. The #1, #3, #5, high school teams in the nation were in attendance, as were most of the nation's top teams and wrestlers. Elias went 3-2 and finished in the top 16, which is AMAZING at this tournament. Elias knocked off the #12 and #6 ranked guys in CA.
​
Sadie Keough went to the prestigious Napa wrestling tournament this weekend where she made day 2. This is the biggest girls tournament in the country. Sadie fell just short of medaling and is improving every single week.
​
The JV boys went to the Vista Del Lago tournament and brought home 10 champions and many other medalists.
​
Week 5 Results
The varsity boys attended the Sierra Nevada Tournament in Reno. There were 94 schools from 7 different states in attendance. We had 6 kids qualify for day 2 and came home with a tournament champion - Elias Castaneda. Amazing tournament for our team and it was awesome to see Elias avenge a loss in the finals against a kid who beat him in Las Vegas a few months ago. Matt Powers finished top 12 as well.
​
3 days after Reno we took a group to Escalon for a 2 day tournament. This tournament gives a ton of matches and kids get put into brackets based on day 1 results. If a kid goes undefeated on day 1, they get put into A brackets. Almost all of our kids were put into A brackets and finished with a finalist in Matt Powers and Bubba Mujagic and Charlie Keough both finished in 3rd place in the A brackets.
​
The girls wrestling team stayed very busy over the winter break participating in two very tough tournaments. The first one was the Women’s West Coast Tournament of Champions. Leading the way on the varsity side was Sadie Keough who finished in the top 12. The JV side has two medalists in Arwyn Perry who finished 2nd and Reese Kneeland who finished 3rd. The second tournament was the Queen Quarry Invitational which saw Sadie lead the way on the varsity side finishing in the top 8. Highlight of the tournament was on the JV side with Lucy Bach winning her first matches of the year to finish in 3rd place! Also medaling on the JV side was Reese Kneeland in 3rd.
​
Week 4 Results
This was a busy weekend for the Broncos. We had 4 teams in 4 different locations and we couldn't have had such a successful weekend without all of the coaches dedicating so much of their time to help our wrestlers. Wrestling is free because of the fundraising that we do to pay for weekends like this for our team.
​
We sent 5 wrestlers to one of the toughest tournaments in the state and nation. 4 of the 5 are freshman, and the 5th is a junior. Richard "Bubba" Mugajic wrestled amazing and went 2-2, Aris Gordon also wrestled amazing and went 2-2, and the Nguyen twins wrestled amazing. Elias Castaneda faced early adversity when he lost his first match against a big rival of his (Elias beat the Vacaville kid last year in double OT to go to state, and this kid beat Elias the year before that to go to state). Elias lost by 1 pt, and had to win 5 matches in a row against multiple kids who are ranked in the top 25 in the state, and he did just that. Elias ended up in 7th place, which is amazing. Not what he wanted, but he fought HARD and showed so much tenacity. It's tough to put into writing how tough this tournament is, let alone to actually fight through a first round loss like that.
​
We sent another group of varsity wrestlers to the Casa Roble Marty Manges tournament. This tournament is always tough and is a good gauge to where we are at as a team at this point in the season. We were without 5 varsity starters, but it didn't matter. Our team is deep and we had an amazing group compete extremely well. Our team finished in 2nd place out of 25 teams, without 5 starters, which is a great way to measure the depth of our team. I'm very proud. Aiden Jaeger, Myles Casillas, and Devan Comer all finished in 2nd place, Dean Dudley and Matt Powers finished in 3rd place, Westin Cokinos and Allan Rimington finished in 4th place, and Deegan Trumbull and Aiden Trunzo finished in 5th place. A great showing for the Broncos and the team finished in 2nd place overall, out of 23 teams.
​
The girls wrestled at the Women's West Coast Tournament of Champions in Roseville. This tournament draws girls from all over the state, and from multiple states. It's nice to have the tournament as a local tournament. Sadie Keough and Myleigh Litsas were our 2 varsity wrestlers in this tournament and both made day 2. Sadie wrestled the best she's wrestled and knocked off the #8 seed, but fell short in the blood round (the round to medal) and finished in the top 12. We had a lot of girls wrestle in the JV portion of the tournament on day 2 and we brought home some hardware.
​
The JV team attended the Whitney tournament and brought home a bunch of medals. Props to Coach Hovis - this guys LOVES these kids and sacrifices so much of his life and time to give back to these kids.
Week 3 Results
We started this week off with our first league dual meet of the season against Inderkum HS on Wednesday night. Inderkum is always tough and they train year round. Our girls varsity team was missing a couple of wrestlers and fell short and lost the dual, but they wrestled amazing and showed that they belong. Coach Keough is doing an amazing job and every single girl is competing with a challenge mindset where they are not afraid of their competition. Our varsity boys were next and showed the strength and future of our entire program. There are 14 varsity weight classes and we had 7 freshman in the starting line up for varsity boys. These are kids who have been in our program for years and are expecting immediate success. We beat Inderkum 53-17 and wrestled very well. We have a lot of room for improvement, which is very exciting for the team. Last year, the dual came down to the last couple of matches against Inderkum, which shows how much we are improving as a team.
​
On Saturday, the varsity girls wrestled at the Del Campo tournament and the varsity boys wrestled at the Elk Grove tournament. At Del Campo, Sadie Keough went 3-1 and finished in 3rd place, Kenzie Simpson went 3-1 and finished in 2nd place, and Rosy Johnson finished 2nd place.
​
The varsity boys wrestled in a VERY, VERY tough Elk Grove tournament on Saturday. I have not seen this tournament so strong in years. To even win a match here was a huge accomplishment. The 3 highlights of the day came from Westin Cokinos, Jeremy Sadler, and Elias Castaneda. Westin was loosing by 13 points, got slammed on his neck in a very disturbing way, took injury time, and then fought his way all the way back to tie the score up and then win by pin. Stud. Jeremy Sadler was losing 1-14 in the semis and fought his way all the way back to force overtime, 14-14. Then Jeremy won in overtime. Elias was extremely sick all week and missed 3 days of school/practice and was still recovering and had no energy all day. Elias doesn't care about any of that and made the semifinals where he found himself losing late in the match. At the very end, Elias reversed his opponent to his back and held him there until the final whistle to win the match. Those 3 guys demonstrated what the entire team is doing every single time that they step on that line to compete. We are fighting to the very end and I am so proud of every single person on this team. Elias Castaneda was seeded #2 and finished in 2nd place, Jeremy Sadler finished in 6th place, and Richard "Bubba" Mugajic and Will Hedrick fought their way back after early losses/adversity to win the rest of their matches and finish as consolation tournament champions.

Week 2 Results
The Varsity girls went to the Casa Roble Invite this weekend. Sadie Keough and Rosy Johnson both finished in 4th place at the tournament and are improving. Our girls wrestled tough and are improving every single week.
​
The Varsity boys went to the Vacaville Duals and finished with a team record of 4-3 - the best we've done there in years. We had wins over McQueen, Montgomery, Vaca B, and Paso Robles. Ben Jesus went undefeated and earned All Tournament.
​
Next up is the Inderkum dual on Wednesday night.
Week 1 Results
​We brought 22 boys to the Rocklin Dual Meet Tournament (14 weight classes). Although we didn't have 4 starters in our line up, we still had 22 varsity level kids to the tournament who rotated matches. Every wrestler got a match. We were put in a pool and went 3-0 in our pool with wins over Nevada Union, Placer, and Thomas Downey High Schools. Then we were placed in the Gold Bracket with the other teams who also went 3-0 in their pools. We lost a very close dual that was back and forth and then we faced off against Golden Valley from Merced, who won this tournament last year. This dual went back and forth and then we pulled away and got the win by winning the last 5 matches in a row. Our team got 3rd place out of 16 teams! Very proud of every person who competed today. We have a TON of upside and it is exciting that our team did so well despite us not being at our best, yet.
​
The Girls competed at the Rio Linda "Knightmare Classic" and had a great day. Every girl besides Myleigh Litsas, Aoloani Gaspar, and Sadie Keough were wrestling in their first every high school wrestling tournament. I'm very proud of every girl who wrestled - it takes a TON of courage to step on that line and compete. Cat Amador got 5th place, Kenzie Simpson and Reese Kneeland both finished in 3rd place. If you don't know, both of these girls are dual sport winter athletes who are also playing on our girls varsity soccer teams. These girls are doing wrestling practice, the soccer practice, playing in soccer games, and competing in wrestling tournaments - super tough and very impressive. They are also first year wrestlers who just finished in 3rd place at their first varsity wrestling tournament. Aolani Gaspar wrestled fantastic and finished in 2nd place. Sadie Keough also wrestled amazing and finished as a tournament champion! This is Sadie's first ever tournament title. Coach Keough told me that he was very impressed with the tenacity and wrestling of every single girl today. Our JV boys also took home a TON of medals today. Great weekend for BV wrestling.
Varsity Scrimmage at Oakdale
We took 12 kids down to Oakdale High School for a varsity scrimmage against some very tough competition. The following schools were there: BV, Oakdale, Turlock, Aptos, Granada, Del Oro, and Clovis. 3 of those schools are in the top 25 in state and Clovis is top 5 in state. All of our boys battled so tough and wrestled so well. Truly, an awesome way to start our season. We simulated real matches with referees and everything. The highlight of the day came when Elias Castaneda (11) wrestled a kid from Clovis in his first match who got 4th at state as a freshman, was a state finalist last season, and who already committed to Illinois University - a D1 Big Ten school. Elias was winning 11-0 and then pinned the kid. Although this was "only" a scrimmage, I promise you that both kids were doing their absolute best and that the other kid was battling to the best of his ability during that match. I'm very proud of every single kid that competed and the best part of this scrimmage is that our team has tremendous upside to what we can do and I know that we are just getting started. I love this team!
