ELMORE__The Ada High School boys wrestling team finished a solid 10th at the 27-school Woodmore Invitational last Friday and Saturday, January 5-6.
Bulldog senior Clayton McClain won the 150 lbs. bracket crown and, in his third match of the day, became the third Ada grappler to record 100 career wins.
“One hundred wins is a major milestone in wrestling,” said Ada head coach Eric Perkins. “If not for the pandemic limiting matches his freshman year, Clayton would have been there a long time ago.”
McClain went a perfect 7-0 at the two-day event.
“He controlled every moment of every match he wrestled up to the championship,” said Perkins. “In that finals match, he gave up an early takedown and a couple near fall points to fall behind 4-0.
