With the win, Wall claimed its second consecutive title, third in five years across three different classes and fifth overall in program history. “It’s pretty special,” Wall head coach Lex Heathershaw said. “It’s pretty cool for our town and community to be able to win this thing in all three classes: 9AA in 2022, 9A last year and 9B this year.
