Baker County High School Wrestling on solid footing

Baker County Wrestling

Baker County High School Head Wrestling Coach Tucker McCullough sees his team entering 2020 on a high note. The team is young and developing.

Coach Tucker stated that Pierce Kirkland has been a surprise this year. Pierce, a high school junior, wrestles at 195 and this is his first year wrestling. Garrett Cain at 220 is having a strong season after Coach McCullough at first saw this season as a developmental year.

The team itself has very solid numbers with 29 wrestlers. Numbers are key for wrestling as the student athletes get to compete at practice in preparation for actual meets. Suwannee and North Florida High School present solid competition for his wrestlers. They will be facing those schools in the days and weeks ahead.
