BUCKNER — Aaron Riordan stood in the briefly empty wrestling room next to the edge of the mat trying to digest events from the weekend.

The room is quiet at the time, but two minutes prior, he had just walked out of a pep rally where the entire Oldham County High School student body celebrated a feat that hadn’t been accomplished in over 20 years: a team state championship.

 GOSHEN – When Grant Williams took the court at North Oldham, there was a look in his eyes which South Oldham coach Steve Simpson had seen only one other time this season.

Thankfully, it was a good memory for South Oldham in a similar hostile environment and what the coach saw was a senior in the zone on a mission to seal a deal that loomed for weeks.

Oldham County won its first ever state duals championship Saturday at the large school state event at Ryle High School.

The Colonels defeated Woodford County in the final 48-25, the same team OC defeated to claim a sixth straight sectional dual title.

On its way to a state title, OC defeated St. Xavier 40-20 and Simon Kenton 51-21 in pool play. The Colonels handled Meade County in the semifinals 46-12.
