Troy then took the remaining 8 matches of the evening.
In the Junior High match, the Hornets almost pulled out a win, but ultimately fell 35-24. Three of the Hornets' four wins came via forfeits for Bradyn Fenstermacher (108 lbs.), Jayden Dumm (170 lbs.), and Conner Bacon (190 lbs.). At 145 lbs. Wyatt Kilburn scored a 47 second pin fall against Wyatt Chaapel.
