“I feel like as a senior, it’s good to have [Pioneer Wrestling] back for my final year,” Avedissian said. “I also feel like there is a bit of a pressure to set a standard for our program. We only have four or five seniors [on the team] this year, most of the kids are underclassmen, but I think the future is looking bright for Pioneer wrestling.”](https://chscommunicator.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/imMDAslaCJR4eKFePgHJVIwrcKNI2dZ7xYKESVfz-475x317.jpg)
