Intermat Wrestling (www.intermatwrestling.com) released its Fab 50 National Rankings on November 11, with Vacaville appearing at #49. Vacaville is the 4th California team on the list, along with Clovis, Bakersfield, and Poway preceeding them. No doubt, this acknowledgment is due to an off season which saw three different Bulldogs earn All American Honors, as well as having two returning CIF State medalists. Great job Dogs - now, let's work to keep it!

Also on the schedule for the first time is the Doc Buchanan Invitational, hosted by Clovis High School the first weekend of January. The "Doc B" has been regarded the last few years as one of the in state previews of the CIF State championship - the tournament is a 32 man bracket where the rubber meats the road early. All returning state champions are represented, and the tournament may be the toughest in all the west.
