Jack Russell of Chattahoochee County is the Ledger-Enquirer High School Boys Athlete of the Week, based on our online poll.
Russell is a senior on ChattCo’s wrestling team. In the 175-pound weight class, he opened the season by going 5-0 last week against Kendrick and Sumter County and winning all his matches at the Temple High School tournament.
