Weight Class: 138

Background Info: Marotto is a four-year starter who has a 95-32 career record going into this weekend’s Allegheny County Tournament. He posted a 25-15 record as a 119-pound freshman. Placed third in Section 1-AAA and had a 30-9 record as a 125-pound sophomore. Last season as a 135-pound senior, Marotto placed third in the section and sixth in the WPIAL.

Quotes from Plum coach Michael Supak:
“John has been a starter since his freshman year and has developed into a real leader as a three-year captain. He’s very tenacious and takes pride in everything he does. He’s always the first one in the practice room and the last to leave.”
