Louis Bernardo, Class of 2003
Louis wrestled for Emerald Ridge for three years at both the varsity and JV levels. This season he claimed the 171 pound weight class and set many team records including most takedowns and most career varsity matches. Bernardo was our first Regional Champion and placed 6th in state his senior season.
Bernardo was voted as a team captain this year is a three-year member of the iron-man club (he never missed a practice or match) and is our only member of the thirty-win club. His hard work in the practice room made the difference in his success his senior season.
He was also voted as a team captain for the Jag Football team. His favorite Jag Wrestling memory is the rivalry between Rogers and Emerald Ridge in dual matches. He is most proud of “setting the takedown record.” Bernardo was named ERHS Male Athlete of the Year for 2003.
Louis will attend Pierce College. He hopes to become a pyrotechnician, but his future plans are not set in stone. |
