One year ago, Gage LaPlante was a projected state contender but Starpoint's season was canceled before the postseason.
Wanting one last shot to win a title, LaPlante transferred @SFHSwrestlingNY in September and hasn't missed a beat. https://t.co/vSEfYAn7wd
AMHERST - Gage LaPlante wasn't afraid to rip the Band-Aid off.
After finishing seventh in the state in the 145-pound weight class two years ago, having his season cut off before the postseason stunk. Once again, LaPlante had established himself as one of the best wrestlers in Western New York with a 37-5 record and a third Section VI Class A championship in his Starpoint career.
