Clover High School’s wrestling team placed third in the region after defeating Lancaster 41-31.  The team had a great synergy from Cole Gregory, Adam Rose, Jakob Tolin and Shane Hurin.  The coach of the wrestling team, Michael Fitzgerald, stated that when looking for a wrestler to join the team, he mainly looks for “a hard worker, someone who is dedicated to the sport and dedicated to their teammates.”  Fitz was a wrestler throughout his life, wrestling in middle school, high school, and college.  He has been coaching Clover’s wrestling team for eight years and is the best wrestling coach the school has ever seen. 
 
Adam Rose declared that his favorite part about wrestling is “beating the other guy.”  Rose also won his match adding to the team’s score in the match against Lancaster.  When asked what motivates him, Rose said: “Knowing that if I lose I will let a lot of people down.”  Every wrestler worked hard this season to become third in the region.
