State Representative Tony Burkley (R-Payne) presented a resolution to George Clemens, honoring him as a 2016 Division III State Wrestling Champion.
“I was proud to see George Clemens further his wrestling career and obtain a spot on the state tournament podium,” said Rep. Burkley. “With his dedication and perseverance, I expect we will see great success from him as he pursues his future endeavors.”
Clemens went 50-0 on the season on his way to becoming the Division III, 126-pound state champion. Clemens made school history last year when he became the first wrestler to place at the state tournament with a seventh-place finish. This year he is the first Wayne Trace wrestler to become a champion.
George Clemens was present along with his parents to receive the resolution during the Ohio House session.
