Gac Wrestling

The varsity wrestling team competed in their last dual meet of the season over at Dunwoody HS against the Wildcats. The meet came down to the last couple matches and the Spartans won one out of the last three to leave defeated 34-40. Having wins for the Spartans were Locke Hoover (103), Travis Elrod (112), Mason Deal (119), and Alex Davis (130). Travis and Alex had very exciting matches last night. Travis Elrod wrestled against a former Spartan and defeated him in overtime when he earned the first takedown. Alex Davis has been sick for the last few days and was healthy enough last night to come back in the third period and defeat his opponent by a score of 11-7. Coach Jeff Harsh said after the meet, “Everyone wrestled real well tonight and we look forward to our Area tournament this weekend down in Oglethorpe County. We seem to be peaking as a team and I foresee several of our wrestlers that will make it to State this year.” Congratulate your Spartan wrestling team as they finish the season with a record of 8-15.
