#TheSeason2022-23: Wewahitchka

We are once again compiling #TheSeason recaps.
Teams will be selected randomly until completion. To jump the line, send me full stats for all your wrestlers who competed on varsity. Our current team, Wewahitchka, and the team after them were both selected randomly.
We won’t always break the girls out into separate attachments. It will depend on the size of the girls’ team.
