HSE, Carmel high schools raise money for injured wrestler

FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — Sportsmanship was on full display in Fishers as rivals teamed up to raise thousands of dollars to help a badly-injured high school wrestler.

Our partners at the Hamilton County Reporter report Hamilton Southeastern sophomore Harrison Rich suffered a severe spinal cord injury during a match in December.

He is currently at Riley Hospital for Children, waiting to be transferred to a hospital in Chicago.

Last night, HSE and Carmel squared off in a meet but came together in collecting more than $3,000 in donations.

The money will go to help offset travel costs for the family.

A GoFundMe page has also collected more than $15,000 dollars.
