In his first season as Head Coach, Nate Litowsky led the 2024-25 War Eagles to a 22-6 record in dual meets, including significant wins over Suwannee (42-5), Yulee (22-8), 3A Buchholz (14-4), and a pair of wins each over Florida High (8-6) and 3A Steinbrenner (28-4). Wakulla also qualified 6 wrestlers for the FHSAA State Tournament. Their accomplishments were remarkable, considering half of the team consisted of six underclassmen and one wrestler who had no prior wrestling experience.

Special to The Sun

Congratulations to the Cougars – Undefeated Super Bowl Champions of Wakulla County!
The Cougars completed a perfect 11–0 season by dominating the Mountaineers 36–0 in the Championship Game!

Powered by a high-octane offense that scored 453 total points and a stingy defense that allowed only 12 points all season, this team proved to be something truly special. Their success is a reflection of hard work, discipline, and determination from start to finish.
“This is now back-to-back Super Bowl wins for the Cougars, which comes with a lot of hard work and dedication,” said Head Coach Derrick Franklin.
Congratulations to our outstanding players:
Vanessa Dykes, Sean Garner, Easton Manning, Cody Ryan, Thomas Keen, Josijah Lighter, Gabriel Alanis, Terry Harvey Jr., Melvin Tointigh, Kasen Henderson, De’sean Monroe, Jacobi Marine, Cornelius Williams, Clifford Dykes, Fisher Harless, David Clinton, Brayden Dyal, Blake Whitfield, Rhyder Pace, Tyrone Harris, Kenneth Robinson, and Will Rummel.
And a huge thank-you to our coaches: Mike Paynter, Jessie Davis, and Derrick Franklin.
Go Cougars!
