Eight qualify for State at the Sectional Traditional Tournament!

The Ware Co. Gator Wrestling team qualified 8 for the traditional state tournament out of the 11 individuals that competed in the sectional tournament held at Loganville HS this past Friday and Saturday.  To qualify for the traditional state tournament you have to place top 8 in the sectional tournament.  There are 2 sections, east and west.  Those that qualify for state are among the top 16 (sweet 16) in their weight class in the state of GA and will vie for an individual state championship next weekend (Thursday – Saturday) at the Gwinnett arena in Atlanta.  The complete schedule is posted on www.ghas.net

Those that qualified for state are as follows:
     

Weight	Name	Sectional Place	Sectional Record	Season Record
113	John Williams	6th	2 – 3	53 – 13
132	Taylor Bristow	8th	2 – 3	39 – 18
145	Isaac King	4th	3 – 2	53 – 12
152	Shawn Tinnyhill	6th	2 – 3	57 – 10
170	David Shavers	3rd	4 – 1	65 – 1
182	Charles Johnson	4th	3 – 2	54 – 11
195	Anthony Rolle	6th	2 – 3	38 – 19
285	MJ Young	5th	3 – 2	43 – 10

Ware had 3 other wrestlers compete in the sectional tournament who did not qualify for state but need to be recognized for their efforts, as qualifying for sectional is an achievement in itself.  These wrestlers are:

Weight	Name	Sectional Place	Sectional Record	Season Record
126	Devante Durham	Top 12	1 – 2	13 – 13
106	Luke Littlefield	9th	3- 2	58 – 7
138	KP Boatright	9th	3 – 2	37 – 11
