On Saturday the Upper State wrestling championships were held and Chesnee wrestling had five wrestlers qualify for the AA/AAA Championship next Saturday at Dreher High School. The Eagles finished third overall as a team at the competition on Saturday.
Chesnee had two wrestlers reach the top of the podium as Upper State champions as seniors Corey Seay (195) and Jose Guzman (285) both were the best in their classes on Saturday. Austin Bigford (145) and Garrett Williams (160) both came away with second place finishes while Trevor Blankenship (152) picked up a third place finish as all three qualified for the state championships. In a normal year the top four in each weight class would qualify for state but due to Covid restrictions this year only the top three qualified. Three Eagles took home fourth place finishes as Ricky Henderson (120), Dylan Jolley (182), and Nick Hofer (220) finished just shy of qualifying for the state tournament. Chesnee will return to the mat on Saturday at 10:00 AM for the AA/AAA state championships at Dreher High School. Unfortunately due to Covid restrictions no fans will be allowed in the gym for the championships. Comments are closed.
