Maryland’s King Sandoval and Air Force’s Wyatt Hendrickson are among the best pinners in the country. Hear from these athletes to learn more about how they’ve accomplished this feat.
The exception is standing on the podium with the best in Ohio after the state wrestling tournament.
The Tri-Valley seniors are focused on completing that objective in the Division II state meet on Saturday and Sunday at Marengo Highland High School.
The duo will be joined by first-time qualifiers, Tri-Valley senior Karter Jones and John Glenn freshman Cohen Bunting, who practiced with the group on Monday. I went to state as a freshman and last year never got to wrestle so I ve never been on the podium, said Eckelberry, who is 38-3 at 126 pounds. I want to compete for a state title, but I at least want to be All-Ohio. My goal coming into the season was to stand on the podium, and that s where I want to finish.
