North Mason senior wrestler Jake Mathews signs his letter of intent to wrestle at Colorado State University-Pueblo next year on May 23 at North Mason High School in Belfair.
North Mason wrestler Jake Mathews will continue to wrestle in college after signing a letter of intent May 23 with Colorado State University-Pueblo.
Mathews was the Olympic League MVP, the Journal's All-County boys wrestler of the year, league champion and district champion. Mathews finished fifth at 152 pounds in the 2A state boys wrestling tournament in February at the Tacoma Dome.
"I'm stoked for Jake; he's a kid who didn't necessarily think college was a pathway for him and wrestling has not only opened that door but made it a reality," North Mason athletic director Ray Bonnell told the Journal in an email. "Jake is a great teammate and a hard worker. He doesn't look like a typical wrestler, but through his work ethic, he has become one of the best in the state. Talking with younger wrestlers, my son Keegan included, he has shown them that the work pays off and to trust the process."
The Colorado State University-Pueblo Thunderwolves were 6-8 overall last season and were 1-6 in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference.
