SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENT

Becoming a State Champion is a wrestler’s ultimate goal, but to achieve this as a Sophomore is truly a great accomplishment. After finishing 5th in the State Tournament in 1991, Mike set his sights to this year’s tournament. His record this past season was a perfect 35-0. On route to capturing the 130 lb. weight class title, Mike took first place finishes in the following tournaments: Southeastern Regional, District XI, SIAL, Piux X Tournament, and the Central Columbia Tournament. His overall two year record is an outstanding 68-5.

In addition to being a member of Mt. Carmel Area’s Wrestling Team, Mike is an Honor Student, currently ranked 25th in a class of 130. His high school activities include Latin Club, Students Against Drunk Driving, Stand Tall, and Biology Club.

Mike is coached by “Bucky” McCollum. Other former M.C.A.H.S. Wrestling Champions are: Ed Rakocy, John Zukowski, and Bob Sacavage, our present District Attorney.

Mike is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Michael Garcia of Atlas.
