Killian Colucci (Christian Brothers, NJ) 106 – In the New Jersey Non-Public A state dual tournament, No. 10 Colucci faced off with No. 3 Cameron Sontz of Delbarton in a semi final match and came off the mat an 8-5 victor.
Ethan Timar (St. Edward, OH) 113 – Ohio had an unofficial dual meet state tournament last weekend and St. Edward captured the Division 1 title. No. 10 Timar authored a mild upset of Rylan Seacrist (Brecksville) with a first period pin, 1:10. Seacrist placed at Ironman, while Timar did not. Seacrist missed time with an injury and is currently not ranked because of that, but if he was, he would have been slotted ahead of Timar.
Louie Gill (Reynolds, PA) 121 – In the early rounds of the Pennsylvania AA Dual Meet states, Gill, who is ninth in the nation, went into overtime with No. 4 Gauge Botero (Faith Christian Academy) and came out ahead of his foe, 5-3.
