Much deserved & so much more!A great leader and a big play maker!Had the key INT against GRCC to close the game out in the closing minutes & led THE drive to set up the game winning FG for the state championship. The kid is a winner through and through.Put the ball in his hands.

The Division 5 title game was what some might call a slobber-knocker. A slugfest. A … OK, I’ll stop. So it was fitting that @GladwinFootball won it in the final seconds. https://t.co/ndHcDlojXe
Gladwin 2023 S/QB Nick Wheeler was definitely an unsung hero tonight with a gritty performance at QB and 4 tackles on defense.
Amazing perspective from the senior leader!
