The Knights wrestling team competed at states in Salem, Virginia on February 18^th and 19th. The team sent over half of its wrestlers, which is an amazing feat for any team. The wrestlers who competed include: Dustin Trail, Devonte Thompson, David Wratchford, and Ethan Terry.

Dustin, David, and Ethan each placed fourth at regionals, whereas Devonte went to the finals and placed second. The Knights did not fare as well at the state competition. David and Dustin missed weight; Ethan and Devonte went 0-2. The coaches could not be reached for comment. Despite the results from states, the team keeps their heads high after a overall successful season, and they are looking ahead to next season
