Wrestlers Earn Academic All-State Honors

At the end of each season the Wisconsin Wrestling Coaches Association honors students for their academic excellence in the classroom. Whitewater is privileged to have seven wrestlers from the 2021-22 wrestling team achieve this honor. 

Carter Friend received 2nd team honors, while Cooper Hammond, Mason DePorter, CJ Tomomitsu, Aaron Porras, Sebastian Cuellar, and Nathaniel Holden received Academic All-State Honorable Mention.

The criterion for this award is that the student-athletes must have a minimum of a 3.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale. They receive points based on multiplying their GPA by 100, point per varsity win, and points based on state placement or qualifier. There were 595 student-athletes nominated for this award who met the credentials. The top 20 in each grade level are 1st team and the next 20 are second team at each grade level. 

Congratulations to these young student-athletes as this is a great accomplishment for them. They continue to make WWUSD proud.
