In addition to the team championship, Dakota Leeland won an individual title in the 110lb weight class. Jacob Detlor and Joey Huddleston were 2nd; Daniel Spurrier and Brody Rourke earned 3rd place while Malachi Steiner was 4th. In team duals, the Tigers are 4-2 with victories over Northwood, Lakota, Sylvania Northview and a thrilling 43-42 victory over Oregon Clay. In the Clay match, Julian Davis set the tone with a 27 second pin but Sam Mitchell was the hero of the night with his 2nd period pin in the 172lb weight class which secured a Tiger team victory! Collin Ohm went 2-0 over the weekend with a pair of pins in the 142lb weight class, Brody Rourke beat a previously undefeated wrestler from Genoa and Leeland ran his perfect record to 11-0.
