ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: BROCK SULLIVAN

Brock Sullivan is a junior for the Union Pines wrestling team.

Sullivan rose to the top spot in the state 3A rankings at 175 pounds, and won the championships in the Sandhills Conference meet, as well as the PJ Smith Memorial, Bob Mauldin Classic, Union Pines Round Robin, Tiger Holiday Classic, Cold Turkey Invitational and Viking Invitational. As the postseason opens, he appears ready to add to his impressive accomplishments. Union Pines, the top seed in the 3A East region, swept through the first two rounds of the state Dual-Team playoffs, beating No. 16 South Johnston, 51-24, and No. 8 C.B. Aycock, 72-6.

Sullivan was the only wrestler for the Vikings that won by pinfall in both of the first two rounds. He won his 100th career match earlier this month.
