WARFIELD — Martin County Youth Wrestling Coach Andrew Chaffin is building from kindergarten up. His Cardinal team has won three out of the last five state championships and Saturday finished the 2021-2022 season as state runner-up.

“It’s been a good year,” Chaffin said of his team, a member of the Tri-State Wrestling League based in Huntington. “We started with over 50 kids, and a lot of the kids ended their season with the Tri-State Wrestling Tournament championship.”

Martin County won the Tri-State league championship this year for the first time.
