Baldwin wrestling’s past met up with its present and future at an alumni reunion held during the Bruin Cup last Friday and Saturday at Baldwin Senior High School. A packed house watched on Saturday as distinguished wrestlers from all eras of Baldwin’s 70-year history united on the mat and enjoyed a round of applause during a break in the action. On hand for the presentation were wrestlers and ex-wrestlers ages 18 to 80, and a feeling of unity and pride was palpable among the men as they swapped stories and shared techniques.
