Coffee County Central is guaranteed to have three wrestlers medal in the state meet this weekend at the Williamson Ag Expo Center – the most for the program ever in one season.

The group is headlined by junior Blayne Myers, who will be wrestling for third place in the 285-pound weight class Saturday.

Myers won his first two matches at the state meet to reach the semi-finals before losing to senior Keimel Redford of Science Hill. Myers won his consolation match by pinfall, putting him in the third place match on Saturday.
