JACOB POWERS
Wrestling
A Camden Hills senior, Powers went 33-0 and claimed his second consecutive Class B championship at 160 pounds.
Powers won outstanding wrestler of the meet awards at the Redskin Invitational in Sanford, the Kennebec Valley Athletic Conference championships and the Maine All-Star tournament. He intends to continue wrestling at Division I Lock Haven University in Pennsylvania.
"He's a really dedicated kid to the sport," Camden Hills Coach Levi Rollins said. "Every morning, he came in at six o'clock and practiced and got in shape before school. Then he came to practice every day after school and put his best effort in."
