NAIG Recap: Local wrestlers ready to conquer more after solid performance at first-ever games
PRINCE GEORGE — It was late June when wrestlers Jacob Littler and Hunter McCarthy were in the process of prepping for the North American Indigenous Game. Now after a solid performance in Halifax, they return to Prince George with brand-new knowledge and experience of the sport.
Hunter McCarthy went to the games with one goal. To win. Although he didn’t quite accomplish that, he did end up finishing fifth out of twelve wrestlers all while being the youngest wrestler in his category. McCarthy admits he’s familiar with the feeling after participating in so many tournaments wrestling older competitors.
