Junior Kenny Boyd fell short in becoming the first Stranahan wrestler to win an individual title since 145-pounder Lenworth Green did so in 1982 when he dropped a 10-5 decision to Lincoln’s Tristan Sommer.

A pair of St. Thomas Aquinas senior wrestlers dropped their respective finals, including Shiquan Hall, who was hoping to win his third state title. Southwest Miami senior Nosomy Pozo earned a 12-3 major decision over him in the 126.

Brandon’s Kyle Norstrem, younger brother to four-time state champion Kevin, pinned Alex Uhre at 5:34 in the 113-pound division. Uhre, a University of Virginia signee, was a four-time county winner.
