North Hunterdon shut down with skin disease

North Hunterdon's wrestling team is currently on hiatus as three unnamed wrestlers and one assistant coach contracted a skin disease this past week. The Lions competed in last weekend's Hunterdon-Warren-Sussex Tournament and have not taken the mat since a 38-26 loss to rival Voorhees last Wednesday.

Coach Tim Flynn confirmed that his team is dealing with skin issues, but does not know where or how his wrestlers may have gotten it. He hopes to have his team back on the mat by next weekend.

North was slated to wrestle Hackettstown this past Thursday, and a tri-meet with Franklin and Hillsborough was rescheduled for next Saturday, Jan. 28.

"We've been closed down until today [Sunday]," Flynn said. "All we did was run for the past couple of days. [The siutation] looks a heckuva lot better than it did. Hopefully, we'll be back by the weekend."

North Hunterdon (10-2) was already scheduled to be off until Friday against Montgomery, a Skyland Conference Delaware Division match for both schools.
