Grace Romano, a senior returning from last year to wrestle again for La Jolla this season, had a total support crew present for her team's dual meet at University City High Wed., Dec. 17.
"Gracie", as her mom, Teresa, affectionately calls her, took on Jackie Franco at 120 pounds with Teresa and Grace's brother, Arturo Galindez, looking on from the stands.
Teresa wrestled for San Diego High School, where Coach Emeritus Walter Fairley Jr. hails from. Arturo, 23 years old, competed in the heavyweight division for Clairemont High at 285 pounds.
"We're all wrestlers," Teresa said before the meet.
The younger Romano dropped the match to Franco in the second period, her first outing in 2025-2026.
