In the late 1970s and early 1980s Highland dominated wrestling in the AA Ohio school division, winning Ohio High School Division II state titles in 1975 and 1981. The 1975 team was coached by James Florian and Robert Burton. The class of 1981 may have been Highland's greatest. 'It was a perfect storm' one alumni is quoted as saying. 'The people, individuals actually, when put together were exceptional and worked as a team to win the wrestling championship. Many of the wrestling team members went onto wrestle at various colleges across the U.S. Todd Winter, an Ohio State Champion, went onto becoming Ashland College's greatest wrestler.
