At 126, Collin Twigg won his third league title by way of a 20-7 major decision over Delta’s Evan Hanefeld.

Benicio Torres kept things rolling at 144 with a 7-0 win over Ian Grime (Archbold) followed by Kale Waxler (157) who scored a pinfall in 1:20 over Holden Barnes of Delta for his league title.

Wauseon’s final championship of the day came from Chance Snow (175) as he picked up a hard-fought 9-7 win over Liberty Center’s Xander Meyers.

It was a balanced effort by the Indians who came in with 14 wrestlers and 13 would stand on podium.

Second-place Archbold had four wrestlers win championships starting with Gabe Chapa (132) who knocked off Zaden Torres of Wauseon 3-1 and Brodie Dominique (152) won by fall in :51 over Max Mossing from Evergreen.

Capturing the final two titles on the day for the Bluestreaks was Wyat Ripke at 190 who defeated Wauseon’s Austin Kovar 5-2 and Dylan Aeschliman pinned (3:12) Camron Kirtz of Swanton at 215..

Third-place Delta had two champions on the day with Adam Mattin (106) pinning Braedy Tammarine of Liberty Center in 1:11 and Tyler Barnes defeated Zavian LaFountain from Wauseon 8-2 at 113 pounds.
