Appvol Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Well my old high school Avery finished 2nd with 205.5 points. Only had 10 kids. 8 out of the 10 placed.Had 4 in the finals.2 won it at 120 and 132. The 132 River Griffith was named most outstanding wrestler for the lower weights. Georgetown Prep was there and they had Kyonte Hamilton who is ranked 3rd in the Country at 220 going to Rutgers and won Beast of the East this year.Hamilton was most outstanding for the upper weights. Cleveland won it with 256 points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that ours missed a chance to compete with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avery has a kid that won it last year as a Freshman at 106 that out this year with a shoulder. He might of been at 113 this year.For a 1a school they did pretty good.

Cleveland should look into going to the Holy Angels tournament next year in Charlotte,NC. It’s a really good tournament.Our 120 got beat in the finals there and our 132. The Head Coach at Appalachian State John Mark Bentley is from Avery. He never lost in high school and won the high school nationals in 1997. Went UNC and transferred to Oklahoma St. in his college career. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
