The Tigers wrestled a tough group of ten AA and A public schools this past weekend, achieving impressive results.  At 103 lbs., Witt won consolation finals to place 3rd with a 3-1 tournament record.
 This is Witt’s first time placing in a tournament as a varsity wrestler.  
 Josh, wrestling at 112 lbs., placed 2nd with a 2-1 tournament record.  
At 145 lbs., Douglas won consolation finals to win 3rd place with a 4-1 tournament record.  

 Douglas and his iron grip turn another opponent on his back.


This was also Douglas’s first time placing in a tournament as a varsity wrestler, and he appropriately earned the Hammer Award from Coach Gay for his effort and tough-as-nails attitude.
