Hey all you wrestling fans:
I just wanted to let you know I’ll be posting results from the Individual State finals at the Palace of Auburn Hills. There are eight wrestlers from the Monroe County Region in state championship matches – Dundee’s Chris Rau (103), Chris Eggert (160) and Jimmy Rowe, Monroe’s Zac Stevens (125), Bedford’s Alex Ortman (160), Airport’s Deven Brown (145), Ida’s Nick Smith (119) and Erie Mason’s Jordan Dusseau (145).
Let’s go Chris Eggert !
Chris Eggert beat Corey Robinson of Caro 3-2 and Alex Ortman defeated Jake Bohn of East Kentwood 6-4. It was Ortman’s second title. Jimmy Rowe is getting ready to wrestle for the Division 3 215-pound title against Joel Vallier of Gladstone.
GO VALLIER!!!!!
Update on Rowe?
He pinned Vallier in 5:10
How is Nick Smith doing from Ida
We have at least 3 state champs so far. That is great. How are you going to get large color pictures of all of them on the front page of the sports like the paper did for Emma Labeau?
nice job Roe and Eggert. Come on Rau
Is mgrappler reporting it correctly? Did Rowe actually cradle Vallier?
It would be neat to get Jimmy’s fathers’ (Steve) thoughts after watching his son win State. Steve won State in 82.
Rowe did cradle Vallier. Next up is Chris Rau of Dundee at 103.
Atmosphere at the Palace?
The atmosphere is electric as usual. It’s great to watch wrestling here.
Let’s Go Rau!!
Congrat’s to Jimmy and Chris!!
So, the county has Rau. Smith and Brown left?
