Adairsville wrestlers split matches with Model, Rockmart

The Adairsville High School wrestling team split a pair of head-to-head matches Tuesday night with Model and Rockmart. The Tigers beat Model 54-20, but fell to Rockmart, 44-34. “The guys wrestled well in the opener against Model,” said Adairsville head coach Ryan Torrence. “We had four starters out of the lineup due to weight progression or injury recovery but overall I was pleased. We simply didn’t wrestle as well against Rockmart. Everyone will be back in the lineup for this weekend and should be ready to go.” Adairsville had five individuals to win both of their matches Tuesday. Isaac Linley (120), James Standridge (138), Dalton Cornett (170), Evan Henry (182), and JT Jolly (195) were all 2-0 for the evening.

The Tigers head to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee this weekend to participate in the Smoky Mountain Duals on Friday and Saturday.
