   This tournament has become really tough as Colin and Brodey had to open the tournament with the #1 ranked wrestlers in 2A in the opening round. The other guys also faced some tough challenges in the opening round. Our guys are learning how to wrestle at this level. They still struggle in the down position, giving up position and getting turned. Even though it was a tough day for the guys, they made some strides. Coln pinned an opponent he lost to earlier at the Gilbert Duals, Wyatt rattled off three straight wins to place second, and Colton won two matches after his first round loss.
