West Frederick Gym a Busy Hub for Local Teams
West Frederick Junior High gym hosts three teams after school next week. Frederick High wrestling and track start at 3 p.m., wrestling ends at 4:30 p.m., then Frederick Community College basketball takes the floor while track continues. FCC already uses the gym, but wrestling lacks a home since moves from the high school cafeteria, carrying mats between sites. The Teen Center also meets Mondays and Wednesdays, creating a crowded scene with athletes passing through and occasional shot misfires.
