NMH competes in the Class A Wrestling League, one of the four leagues that make up the New England Prep School Association. The Class A league is generally regarded as the top prep league in New England and features such schools as Exeter, Andover, Deerfield, Loomis Chaffee, Tabor, Choate, and Wilbraham and Monson. The top four placers in each weight in the Class A tournament qualify for the New England Championships. Usually there are about 55 schools represented there. In the past 11 years NMH has won the Class A Tournament five times, been second twice and third twice. During the same period NMH has won the New England Championships once, been second three times, and third once. We have placed in the top eight in 14 of the last 15 years.
NMH’s dual meet schedule is based on quads and quints every Saturday and by the end of the season the team has usually wrestled 24-26 dual meets. In addition NMH competes in three regular season tournaments: the Class A League Tournament, the New England Championships as well as the National Preparatory Championships.
The wrestling roster represents a mix of students new to the sport, students who have learned the sport at NMH, students with wrestling experience prior to NMH, and a few outstanding postgraduate wrestlers. No one is cut from the sport and there is a full junior varsity schedule highlighted by the annual JV New England Tournament. In other words, we maintain very high standards for our wrestlers, and support them every inch of the way to give them what they need to succeed.
