Mountain View (GA)

Mountain View returns a possible 83 (of their 97 points/point-getters) from 2021 - that’s good for 5th in terms of returning points. The Bears lose a trio of State Qualifiers including Daevon McDew, Jordan Eccleton, and Samuel Austin, but the 2021-22 team should be very competitive and back in the hunt for a top 3 finish. The Bears are led by returning State Placers Lex Hennebaul and Armond Jones and both are focused on taking the top step in 2022.

Add in 6 others that qualified for the state tournament including Adam Lee, Justin Greene, and Elias Vermillion and this is a team that could make some noise in 2022. How high the Bears climb will likely be up to how well Luke Vasquez, Ryan Rodgers, Daviel Abreu and others wrestle in 2022. Keep an eye on Taj Jones to make an impact in 2022 as well. Mountain View will be in the hunt - probably doesn’t have the horses to knock off Camden, but certainly has the ability to climb into the top 2 or 3 teams in 7A.

We’re excited to have this group of juniors and seniors leading our team this year! The core of this group have been together since middle school. A year ago, they helped us finish in the top 6 at the State Duals and earn our 10th Region Championship. With an added year of experience, we hope to continue to work together well as a team and continue to succeed together!
