TIFTON — The Region 1-6A wrestling traditional tournament will be Saturday at Tift County High School.

Action gets started in the morning, with wrestlers from the six region schools competing in each weight class. The top four will advance to sectionals, which will be at Valdosta High Feb. 8.

Tift won the Region 1 traditional title last season, when it was also in 1-6A, albeit the region had different membership. Camden County will be favored to win this year. The Wildcats won the state duals title earlier in January and have won 10 consecutive traditional crowns.

Tift’s Lady Devils compete in their traditional tournament Friday at Houston County High. Tift advanced out of their sectional to state prelims in duals competition.
