Winning their weight classes were senior Jake Trautwein at 182 pounds and junior Chris Gobbi at 220.

Gobbi picked up his first-ever tournament victory and also improved to 5-0; he defeated Cambridge, N.Y., wrestler Nathan Wilch in the final, also with a second-period pin.
Also placing for MUHS were sophomores James Whitley at 132 and Nate Gebo at 106, both taking third and winning their final matches with pins. Whitley improved to 6-1, while Gebo moved to 5-1.
