Correction to story

There was an error in sports editor Jared McMurry’s column in Tuesday’s print edition of the Journal Review.

The column, which advocated for the Indiana High School Athletic Association to adopt girls wrestling as a sanctioned sport, incorrectly associated the Indiana High School Wrestling Coaches Association with the current girls’ state tournament. Hamilton Heights’ Gary Myers started the Indiana High School Girls Wrestling State Tournament in 2017, and is the tournament director. IHSGW is its own entity and not associated with the IHSWCA.
