Gordon Lee was the only local wrestling team to bring home a medal as the GHSA’s state duals competitions concluded Saturday.

Though the Trojans finished fourth in the Class A duals at Heard County High School, the “what-if” thoughts will surely stick with them after having to forfeit a weight class during the team tournament, which included a pair of tight matches on the final day.

Coach Jason Mull’s Trojans, after posting 41-40 and 41-38 victories in Friday’s opening two rounds, weren’t as fortunate in Saturday’s championship semifinals, losing 40-35 to eventual runner-up Elbert County.

They later defeated Toombs County for a second time in the event, 39-36 on Saturday, to reach the third-place match against Commerce. However, despite an early 12-point lead, Gordon Lee lost 41-34 in settling for fourth.

Gordon Lee forfeited at 165 pounds in the losses versus Elbert and at 190 against Commerce, and the Trojans survived against Toombs despite forfeiting at 215.
