Michael Zachary
- Thread starter buf87
- Start date
From what I've seen, he's a really athletic kid that scores a lot of points. State champ last year at 132, 4th at 120 the year before. Fairly heavy favorite to win again this year.
He is undefeated on the year at 145. He was State Champ last year for Dowling at 132, was 4th at 120 as a Freshman.

I went to school with one of the older Zachary's before they enrolled at Dowling for HS. Intelligent and driven kids, great family. I can't recall if Michael is a bloodline Zachary or one of the adopted boys, but they've pretty much all been solid athletes and students. If he wants to play football and wrestle, GV is a great choice and he should excel in both there. Plus GV team is reigning NAIA Wrestling champions.
His family was in the paper a few weeks back about their adoption of a baby girl with Down syndrome in the fall. The couple who had been arranged to be the adoptive parents chose not to adopt when they heard she had Down syndrome (after flying from CA to complete the process). Michael's dad was a doctor at the facility and didn't want the baby to end up in the foster system, so he and his wife adopted her, despite being in their late 50s/early 60s IIRC.

I was wondering why Austin Flynn was in the photo, but if he's playing two sports that would explain it.
