Overcoming Obstacles: Wrestling’s Luke Bullard named Athlete of the Week

Written by Gabriella Penge – Newspaper Staff Reporter

Our Athlete of the Week this week is Luke Bullard. Luke says his favorite high school memory from wrestling was when he won the Cobb County tournament as a freshman. He has been wrestling for six years and plans to continue wrestling in college. When asked why he thinks he was chosen for Athlete of the Week, Bullard responded with “dedication and heart.” Coach Kyle Norred said, “Luke has worked hard all off season and throughout this season to improve, and his efforts are paying off. He is a returning State Qualifier with high expectations for himself this year.” Luke’s advice to youngers athletes is to “always push through and never give up.” Congratulations, Luke, on being a role model throughout the school!
