Joining Finney and Stinson in the championship round will be Tattnall Square's Christian Rodgers, whose 7-5 overtime win over Mt. Zion (Carroll County)'s Daniel Anderson put him into the Class A 220-pound championship match against Micheal Patton of Commerce.

Also advancing to championship matches in Class AAAA were Crisp County's TK Clay at 152 pounds, Upson-Lee's Lazavier Moore at 220 pounds and West Laurens' Ben Deal at 152 pounds. Treutlen's Payton Brooks (120 pounds) and Cody Calhoun (195 pounds) also will wrestle in championship matches Saturday.
