In most winter sports, the month of December doesn't really mean a lot, with mostly meaningless regular season games taking place. Sure, it's nice to see matchups such as Country Day vs. Southfield in boys hoops this past Saturday, but it really doesn't mean that much in the grand scheme of things.
That's where Kosmo is thankful for the sport of wrestling.
Even though it's December, area wrestlers are gearing up for one of the most important meets of the year when the Oakland County tournament takes place on Saturday at Oxford High School.
It's great that these kids have something to build up towards early in the season. It gets them training hard right from the start of practice in November, and then after a deserved holiday break, they get right back at it in January with the regionals not that far off in mid-February.
As always, it should be a great meet on Saturday.
