Wrestling has historically been a family sport. Newsarticle from the 2002-03 High School wrestling season

Few programs are blessed with a family line like the Spencer clan in Baraboo - where all six Spencer brothers were state qualifiers and Troy and Traenor Spencer were state champions. Yet family ties and success often go hand-in-hand.
Another example of the positive family values the sport promotes took place at last Saturday's Purgolder Invitational. Ripon won the team title at the eight-school meet and host Madison East was runner-up. The chase for the team championship, though, took a back seat to the individual championship matches.
Madison Memorial senior Tony Ayala became a two-time Purgolder Invitational champion when he defeated Brodhead sophomore Bruce Slack 7-0 for the 125-pound title.
Ayala and teammate Jimmy Mack, who won the 160-pound championship, led Memorial to a fifth-place finish in the team competition.
But Ayala also had his attention focused on the 112- and 135-pound matches.
That was where his younger cousins, Sergio and Diego Mireles, were trying to win their respective titles for East.
"That was definitely a cool experience having us all there together," said Ayala, who won the Wisconsin Heights Invitational title earlier this season and is 11-1 overall.
"Our families controlled about a quarter of the stands. It was great having that many people cheering for us."
Their families had a lot to cheer for as both Sergio and Diego Mireles joined Ayala as champions.

Sergio Mireles, a freshman, beat previously undefeated junior Nathan Kleinschmidt of Marshall 9-1 to improve his record to 11-0 this season.



Diego Mireles, a sophomore, beat Orfordville Parkview sophomore Andrew Lewis 8-3 in the finals to up his record to 8-2.



"It was great they could cheer for me, too," Ayala said of his cousins. "It was tough on my family when my teammates wrestled Sergio and Diego.
"But I had a blast. It was great we could all do so well."
Ayala said the trio talked earlier in the day about their hopes to win all of their individual matches so they could qualify for the finals.
But the potential for the family to take home three individual titles didn't really begin to sink in until the second round of competition.
"When I realized we all had a good chance to be in the finals, I was stoked," Ayala said with a chuckle. "Then it fell our way."
There will be more at stake, though, when Ayala and his cousins meet the next time.
Memorial will compete in a Big Eight Conference dual at East on Friday where the city title also will be on the line.
The defending city champion Spartans are 1-0 in the city with a victory over West, while East is 2-0 with victories over La Follette and West.
"That's a big one for us and for them too," Ayala said of Friday's dual. "I have to pull for my teammates but I still want to see my cousins do well."

Sergio to do an official NCAA Division 1 recruiting visit to Brown

He will leave on Friday morning and get a chance to sit in on a Brown University class (of a current wrestler) at the Ivy League school. Later, he will have dinner with the rest of the wrestling recruits (several from California), attend a Princeton vs. Brown football game, take a tour of the campus in the city of Providence, Rhode Island and stay in the dormitories.

Sergio was also mentioned in the wrestling magazine Amateur Wrestling News. He was lised as one of the top six wrestlers in the High School Scouting Report in Wisconsin by Editor Ron Good.

Sergio Mireles names Scholar as part of Hispanic Recognition Program by the College Board

National Hispanic Recognition Program

The College Board's National Hispanic Recognition Program was initiated in 1983 to identify outstanding Hispanic high school students and to share information about these academically well-prepared students with subscribing colleges and universities. In order to be eligible, students must be at least one-quarter Hispanic. Each year the NHRP identifies approximately 3,300 of the highest scoring students from a nationwide total of 124,000 high school juniors who took the PSAT/NMSQT and designated themselves as Hispanic as well as approximately 125 of the top scoring PAA students from Puerto Rico. The nationwide selection also includes students from Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and U.S. citizens attending international and APO schools.

Although the College Board is not able to provide a monetary award to these students, an important component of the program is the CD-ROM distributed to subscribing four-year postsecondary institutions. This CD-ROM lists the names of all students selected in the program and is mailed in September to these subscribing colleges and universities. Being listed may give students an opportunity to hear from colleges that are particularly interested in communicating with prospective students of Hispanic heritage.

Eligibility Requirements
Qualification for recognition is based on the student's combined verbal, math, and writing skill scores on the PSAT/NMSQT taken in the student's junior year of high school. PSAT score cut-offs vary each year by state. Students must also self-identify themselves as Hispanic on the PSAT/NMSQT. A minimum grade point average is established for the program and academic information is requested directly from the high schools -- i.e., grade-point-average.

To qualify for this program, the student must be at least one-quarter Hispanic, according to the following definition: A person of Mexican-American, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or other Spanish cultures or origins. For purposes of this program, this does not include persons from Brazil or Portuguese culture/origin, nor persons from the Philippines. Hispanic is an ethnic category not a racial category and Hispanics may be of any race.

Lorena Barbosa-Mireles takes the PLAN test

It is the precursor test to the ACT and it gives students a chance to get a feel for the PSAT and SAT tests.

The PLAN® program helps 10th graders build a solid foundation for future academic and career success and provides information needed to address school districts' high-priority issues. It is a comprehensive guidance resource that helps students measure their current academic development, explore career/training options, and make plans for the remaining years of high school and post-graduation years.

PLAN can help all students—those who are college-bound as well as those who are likely to enter the workforce directly after high school.

As a "pre-ACT" test, PLAN is a powerful predictor of success on the ACT. At the same time, many schools recognize the importance of PLAN testing for all students, as it focuses attention on both career preparation and improving academic achievement.

Typically, PLAN is administered in the fall of the sophomore year.
