Monument Wrestling Builds to Western Mass title

NORTHFIELD — Berkshire County as a whole only went 2-7 in individual championship matches at the 2017 Division III Western Mass Wrestling meet, but by Saturday night, that meant little to the Monument Mountain Spartans.

After a two-year absence from the regional podium, the Spartans made a triumphant return at Pioneer Valley Regional last weekend. Monument rocked the team standings, rolling up 203 points, nearly 50 more than second-place Hampden Charter (153). Taconic placed fifth with 124, while Mt. Greylock was ninth with 113 and Mt. Everett 16th with 47.5.
