Shields makes list
Ty Shields of Upper St. Clair was omitted from the list of honorable mention selections on the Almanac’s wrestling all-star team. The 189-pound grappler sported a 27-13 record this winter and finished 60-38 in his career.
Shields collected an array of medals during tournament competition: fourth at Chartiers-Houston; runner-up at Burgettstown; seventh in Allegheny County; and fifth at sectional. He was 1-2 in the WPIAL/Southwest Regional Tournament.
“Ty matured into a great team leader this year,” said USC head coach Chris Tarr. “He was a motivator and consistent wrestler for our team.”
