ALL THINGS ATHLETIC
Natrona County High School Athletic Philosophy! Natrona County High School believes that participation in athletics provides a wealth of opportunity and experience that assists students in personal growth, self-expression, mental alertness, and physical growth. The Natrona County Athletic Department strives to provide a positive environment dedicated to achieving excellence in athletic and academic performance. Participating in athletics inspires personal development that prepares student-athletes to contribute to society in a lasting and meaningful way.
Athletics play an important part in the life of Natrona County High School! Young people learn a great deal from their participation in interscholastic athletics. Lessons in sportsmanship, teamwork, competition and how to win and lose gracefully are an integral part of each team in our athletic program. Athletics also play an important part in helping the individual student develop a healthy self-concept as well as a healthy body. Athletic competition continues to add to our school spirit and helps all students, spectators as well as participants, develop pride in our great school.

Head Wrestling Coach
Scott Russell Assistant Wrestling Coaches Tyrone Fittje Ryan Parker Shawn Swiger Tanner Olson NCHS Philosophy of Wrestling! The NC Wrestling Coaches believe successful wrestling is based on these attributes towards making the program its best: effort, technique, intelligence, strength, and quickness. NC believes in a highly intense style of wrestling which places wrestlers on the defense. The aggressive style of wrestling focuses on dominating the opponent physically and mentally. The Natrona wrestler does not cease the pressure and remains in the opponent's face for the duration of the match. The NC wrestler must use all of these attributes to maintain this aggressive style of wrestling. A true Mustang champion must work harder, have discipline, and remain focused for the entire match and season to fulfill his dreams. |
