Few teams in Alabama, regardless of class, return as much firepower as Mortimer Jordan. The Blue Devils return 6 State Placers including State Champion Brodie Christmas. This team is stacked from top to bottom, but will be especially tough beginning with Aiden Morris at 120 through 190 with State Placer Weston Tossie. Don’t be surprised to see multiple Blue Devils in the state finals looking to put an exclamation point on a team title with an individual one as well. But 6A is loaded and MJ can’t just rely on their hammers. Brooks Morton, Ammonte Flemming, and Carmine Miller will play important roles down at the bottom of the lineup with Hawkins, Hardin, and Heron being equally important up top. The Blue Devils will be tough for anyone from 126-157 with Wright, Christmas, Leon, Rainwater, and Horton. - SEWrestle
