Congratulations to two phenomenal wrestlers from Thomas Stone, Ryan Sharp (@N3VER_dull) and Big David Henderson. Last night, they both competed in the Maryland States — Ryan at 195# and David in HWT.

While this is only Henderson’s first year at wrestling, he placed THIRD in States! Wow — excellent job, David.

Sharp, meanwhile, continued his unbeaten streak and became the Maryland State Wrestling Champion. Congratulations to an outstanding athlete and all-around good guy.

Congratulations to Jordan White from Grace Christian Academy. In their recent game against King’s Christian Academy from St. Mary’s County, the 6-foot-5 junior guard scored his 1,000th career point.

The 1,000-point mark became reality when White caught an alley-oop pass from teammate Erik Perry with 4 minutes 59 seconds remaining in the second quarter and dunked the basketball to give his team a 19-12 lead.

Margolis, a senior at LPHS set the all-time SMAC wins mark in wrestling.
