State of the Program ... Harlem (GA)
By this time - many of you have seen that we are doing highlights of different teams across the SE as we gear up to drop the team previews in 6 weeks. I was releasing one team a day, but with now over 170 teams having sent in information - I’ll try to ramp it up a bit so we can get as many in as possible before the first part of October. I can’t guarantee I’ll get to everyone, but I will try to get to as many as possible.
Please re-visit when the actual previews get dropped in October because what I am sharing below are just a few of the names the coaches have given me. Much more will be shared - plus SEWrestle’s “What to Expect” - in the team previews. Lastly, if you want to know whether we have your form … you can find the list of everyone that has submitted a form in the blog archive.
Harlem (GA)
Coach Waters enters year 8 at Harlem and looks to have a group that can make some noise in 2022. Senior State Qualifiers Donovan Miller and Luke Rhodes will lead the way after the graduation of State Runner-up Chandler Diles. Both Miller and Rhodes won multiple matches at the state tournament last year and should be hunting for a spot on the podium in 2022.
The Dawgs also return State Qualifiers Chance Diles, Zaire Herder, Dylan Hiller, and David Stanton … making Harlem one of the teams to beat in 3A Area 3. Keep an eye on Mason Linkous as well as freshmen Braxton Gross and Ryan Rector.
“The Bulldogs won the Area Duals, but fell short of making the Elite 8 last year and finished runner-up at the Traditional. We have 9 starters coming back with 4 wrestlers making Top 12 last year. Really excited about our incoming Freshman class. This year, we will be led by ours Seniors Donovan Miller 126 and Luke Rhodes 195. We had a great summer workouts and looking forward to the season. GO DAWGS!!”
