Three Wrestlers Earn Medals at State Championship

Congratulations to Varday Jacobs '20Richie Pierce '20 and Drew Pratt '23 on finishing in the top 6 in the state in their respective weight classes at the DIAA wrestling state championship!
 
Jacobs finished in fourth place in the 145-pound bracket, with dramatic wins over the Cape Henlopen and William Penn wrestlers (avenging a prior season loss to the latter). Jacobs finished his high school wrestling career with 112 wins!
 
Pierce placed sixth in the 220-pound bracket by showing his grit and determination as the #12 seed, defeating the #3 and #7 seeded wrestlers along the way, including a come-from-behind win by pin to make it to the top 6!
 
Pratt finished in sixth place in the 106-pound bracket, becoming the first freshman in Tower Hill history to place at the state tournament.  
 
Three medalists is the most Tower Hill has had in one season since the 1990s and the most in one season under current coach Greg Spear. These individual performances complemented the 11-1 dual meet record in what was a great year for the team. Thank you to everyone who supported the team this season!
