Congratulations to Roane County High School wrestlers and twin brothers Camden Moore and Cole Moore who are Co-Valedictorians of their 2016 graduating class. Furthermore, another Roane wrestler, Riley White, is the Salutatorian.

I copied this from the front page and thought it worthy of praise for these young men. It is quite an accomplishment for 3 young men who spend so much time excelling in sports to also be so brilliant in the classroom. Surely a sign of good parenting and will to achieve at a high level from these young men. Great work on and off the mat guys! I'm impressed!

Congratulations to them! I always stress to my son and wrestlers that I coach that academics comes first and then wrestling. Long after our bodies have declined and wrestling has become a thing of our past we will still have our minds and intelligence to help us succeed at life. Glad to see these young men are on a solid path to success.

I agree Gator, these young men have proven that wrestlers do excel in the classroom, not just on the mat. I know these individuals on 'both sides of the fence' having coached against them and shared storied with each as well. Great young men no doubt. Spencer/Roane County has a monopoly for outstanding performances, I speaking now on the athletic part of wrestling. They have produced 5 4X state champions, 3X Dutton award winners, 3X Dave Schultz HS Excellence award Winners for WV, and 6 MOW awards at the HS state tourney. Hope my records are corrects but what an amazing run by my long time rival. But friends as well.

AMEN TO ALL OF THESE POSTS!!!
