There’s no cakewalk for wrestlers on their way to the traditional state championship weekend in Macon, regardless of weight class or classification. Few of the wrestlers who survive the grind of eliminations to make it to this stage are as healthy as they were when the season started three months ago. “It’s a long season, but this is what we go through it all for,” said Flowery Branch coach Shane Millwood, who has eight wrestlers seeking individual state titles starting Thursday at the Macon Centreplex.
