Coach Rudy was the head coach at St. Charles from 1982-1997, capturing a 3rd place team trophy in 1997. He is a current assistant at East and a staple to our program.
All-school assembly tomorrow at 9am. Thanks so much for the support from
@StCharlesEast
@STCEathletics
@STCEBoosters
and everyone that came down and supported. The support from the community and school are what makes this so special.
Elijah Chiaro loses to Plainfield South and is officially eliminated. Elijah finished his career as a 2x State Qualifier and an all-time leader of our team. To say he will be missed is an understatement.
Congrats on a fantastic career, Elijah.
Some really kind words from Indiana Head Football Coach Tom Allen about our big man, Austin Barrett. Football and wrestling go hand-in-hand and Austin is living proof that you can excel at both.

Pirdayeh from Iran defeats Abbasov from Azerbaijan 3-2 and eliminates Ben from the tourney. Not the outcome anyone wanted but we cannot stress how proud we are of Ben for making the world team and going toe-to-toe with the world’s best. He will be back.
BEN DAVINO VS THE WORLD! Ben and Coach Potter are officially in Istanbul and training with Team USA for the U17 World Championships this weekend.
Ben wrestles early Saturday AM. Set your alarm clocks and LET’S GO BEN!
STATE CHAMPS are heading home! Planning on picking up police escort up on west side town at 11:30 pm and will be back at school shortly after.
