Minisink Senior Will Wrestle For Team New York At Disney Duals
Two and a half years ago, Minisink Valley’s Josh Bonneau decided to give wrestling a try…for some people, it just clicks! After a respectable junior year, Bonneau had an incredible senior campaign capped of by a 4th place finish at 220 pounds at the NYS Championships in February. In March, Bonneau was asked to represent New York in the annual NY/NJ All-Star Charity Challenge.
Bonneau has been honored once again. The Nassau CC bound senior has recently been asked to wrestle for Team New York for the Disney Duals, one of the premier off season dual meet events in the country. Rather than try to convey to you how much of an honor this is, I will instead just post Team NY’s roster. Congratulations Josh!!!
