The Pirates’ Tyler Lane (145-pound weight division) and Alex Hallum (168) medaled at the state meet after each of the seniors posted second-place finishes.

Gore senior Nick Wolf (275) placed seventh at the state meet.

Also competing at the Class A state meet for the Pirates were seniors Beau Brown (123), Gunner Dozier and Mike McAlister (198) and junior Hunter McGee (157). A knee injury prevented Gore senior Garrett Douthit (heavyweight) from competing at the meet.

“It was pretty good,” Gore head coach Brandon Tyler said about his team winning their second straight state title. “We kind of had to battle some adversity obviously with Garrett not getting to lift. It took some points away from us but still yet the kids battled through it and were able to win another championship.”

The Pirates totaled 48 points to win the state championship and Wyandotte (36) was second in the team standings. Lane scored 26 of Gore’s points, Hallum registered 18 and Wolf had four.
