TO CONGRATULATE ETHAN POWELL OF THE WEST-OAK HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING TEAM ON A STELLAR SEASON AND TO HONOR HIM FOR WINNING THE CLASS 3A STATE CHAMPION TITLE IN HIS WEIGHT CLASS.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate are pleased to recognize Ethan Powell for winning the Class 3A State Champion Title in the two hundred twenty pound weight class on Saturday, February 23, 2019 at the Anderson Civic Center; and
Whereas, a senior at West-Oak High School, Ethan Powell has been integral to the dominance of the West-Oak High School wrestling team in recent years, and this year he finishes an impressive career of hard work; and
Whereas, in the Class 3A State Individual Tournament, Ethan was among four other teammates who won individual titles and two other teammates who placed. The team earned a total of one hundred thirty-five team points, the most among the Class 3A competition; and
Whereas, in the tournament, Ethan won twenty-two of the team's points. In his state title match, he placed first and won by fall, pinning Union County's Cam Lott, who was formerly undefeated, with 32-0, and had pinned Ethan a week prior at the Upper State Individual Tournament; and
Whereas, the West-Oak High School wrestling team has trained year-round, and the wrestlers have pushed themselves hard in order to maintain their tradition of excellence. They continue to be students of the game; and
