Milan Indian wrestling program has had 40 years of traditionally solid teams. It was originally introduced by Coach Roy Adams and passed over the years to coaches who have proudly followed his lead. In their recent annually hosted 6-Way Invitational Meet, held at MHS on Saturday, January 27th, the Tribe claimed seven of the 14 Weight Class Champion Titles. With that, current Head Coach Adrian Wilburn, tallied his 100th varsity team coaching victory.
