We don’t follow the Independent School Associations in any state nearly as close as the other associations, but we do know National Preps and, as a result, we know the Hammond School. Luke Martin qualified for National Preps and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see several other Hammond wrestlers qualify this season. Angesom Ladd and Cobin Rabon both have won titles and Kirby Johns, Blaze Barnes, and James Lay have taken second. Like many smaller schools - Hammond might have a few holes, but the rest of this lineup is tough. Jaden Kline joins Ladd, Barnes, Martin and Rabon in a “murderers row” for Hammond. Be sure to keep an eye on 8th grader Sean Mcree who could make some noise this season. - SEWrestle
