After 25 years, Humphrey has eyes on the wrestling prize

For the past 25 years, Jefferson High School wrestlers have run the gamut of emotions under the direction of coach Troy Humphrey. They’ve won hard fought matches and overcome the adversity of heartbreak a number of times. 

Many good Panther wrestling teams have passed through the Jefferson program over the years, but Humphrey feels optimistic that the 2022-23 squad could be the best yet.

After placing third in the state – for the first time since 1988 – and earning a second consecutive Western B/C championship last season, Humphrey has high hopes for his 25th season.
