Wetumpka, ECHS claim region duals titles

The Wetumpka wrestling team lost just five bouts in four duals matches as it eased to the Class 6A Region 2 title last Thursday. Wetumpka racked up at least 70 points in all four matches to secure a spot in this week’s round of 16 of the state duals tournament.

“It’s definitely a good confidence booster for us at this point in the season,” Wetumpka coach Anthony Byrd said. “And it was big for our seniors to get it done like that on senior night. The team is really excited about it right now.”
