The two champion wrestlers are senior Sebastian Burbano, who won the 160-pound crown and senior Jordan Artope, who walked away with the 182-pound crown. Athletic Director Tom Baker noted that, since 1971, Hen Hud has only produced three Section 1 wrestling champions, making it even more impressive that the school is celebrating two winners in the same year. 

As a team, the Sailors finished third overall in Division 2 for section 1, the highest team placing ever.

 Matt Kempski, Colin Park and Ilham Nasirov placed second; Pete Maselli and Ryan Loguidice placed 3rd; Jake Anstett placed 4th; Beckett Herman placed 5th; and Hector Giron and Devin Furphy placed 6th.
