Ionia had a long day today on the mats at Reed City. Our boys left at 6am this morning and we just got back at 10pm tonight. Today was a huge tournament 32 man brackets at each weight class. We had 6 wrestlers alive at the blood round and ended up getting 2 wrestlers into the medal round. Senior Hunter Barker finished in 4th place with a record of 3-2 on the day with his only losses coming to the #1 and #3 ranked wrestlers in the State. Freshman Chad Campbell finished in 2nd place going 2-1 with a great match in the finals having a close match with #7 in the state ranked wrestler from Lowell losing a decision 8-7. The following wrestlers all went 2-2 and were 1 match away from a medal: Ricky Charon, Jackson Stoakes, and Jonathan Rico. Levi Schied also got a win today in a very tough weight class. Ionia will be back on the mat this Wednesday where we travel to Grand Ledge to wrestle a quad vs Lansing Everrett and Charlotte.
