Post tournament comments from Jackets head coach DA White, "Our kids wrestled well against some very strong competition. To place Third as a team against this type of competition shows how much improvement these kids a made. You are looking at 1A, 2A, 3A and 4A. It has been fun to watch these kids take their talents to the next level. These kids gave it all they had and I'm proud of them. Not to mention with little rest after returning from Louisburg late last night with a big win. We now stand at 8-3 overall and 2-0 in the conference."
