Slicers Wrestler Brings Home 2nd State Title

(La Porte, IN) - A La Porte High School student has again brought home a state title in wrestling.

 

Ashton Jackson won the state title in the 113-pound weight class over the weekend. Jackson won the state championship last year in the 106-pound weight class.

 

Jackson, coached by former high school wrestling star Louis Kuzdas, is a junior with what seems like an obvious goal of a third state champion in wrestling during his senior season.

 

"Congratulations.  The City of La Porte is certainly proud of him.  We're a special community and this is just another example," said Mayor Tom Dermody.

 

Dermody also offered his congratulations to head wrestling coach, Louis Kuzdas, and his entire staff.
