North Hall used a strong finish to defeat Buford for the Area 8-AAAA duals wrestling championship on Saturday at Buford, making the Trojans one of multiple area teams to punch their state duals tickets for next week in Macon. Gil Hoffman was behind with about 15 seconds left at 160 pounds, but Trojans coach Stuart Cunningham said Hoffman’s five-point lateral move almost ended with a pin and earned him a one-point victory.
