Weekend Wrap up - Georgia
A few names to note at the events around the state this past weekend. Keep in mind (especially in scrambles and pools, etc.) that many coaches are looking to get their wrestlers matches early in the season. Below are a few that looked like they had a good weekend - it doesn’t mean that someone else didn’t. Yes we recognize that not all brackets are created equally … this is simply an opportunity to recognize those that did well (no matter their bracket). We are only mentioning those that wrestled in varsity brackets (also note that not all event results were posted on trackwrestling).
