The youngest member of the team Gunnar Rumpf who is four, went 2-2 on the day and placed fourth. In the Bantam Division both wrestlers finished 4th Austin Teti also went 2-2 winning his first match 7-5 and then winning in the consolations round 8-6 before losing his final match 4-0. Mason Arborio also went 2-2 winning his first match by Tech Fall 22-5 and then dropping a 7-2 decision before winning 8-0 and losing a close 10-7 final match to finish 4th. Collin Peck won his first match by pin but then dropped his next two finishing just outside the medal round.

Coaches Mark Mangiafico, Fred Orde and Gary Rumpf were proud of their young wrestlers. Mangiafico said, “I was impressed at how far these young men came in such a short period of time. We lost a lot of practice nights due to snow this year which made it hard to teach them as much as we would have liked.”
