   Several D1 wrestlers are doing alright at this tournament Qtr Finalists:
  Adam Waters-FCA  Arment Waltenbaugh-FCA  Jason Singer-FCA  Chase Hontz-FCA Cael Weidamoyer-FCA  Mark Effendian-FCA (I see a pattern developing) Gauge Botero-FCA  Luke Sulgalski-FCA  Max Stein-FCA  Mason Zeigler-Qtown  Calvin Lachman-Qtown
There is a tourney for each class, and I listed them by Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors; which is why all the Faith Christian kids are listed first. The Qtown kids are Juniors.
I've watched most of the matches, and the FCA boys aren't breathing heavily yet. They've pretty much mowed down the competition. In the Round of 16, Botero's third bout of the day, Gage put a kid from Connecticut on his back so quickly and in such a surprising way that after the ref slapped the mat, the other kid came up smiling. He was like, "What just hit me!?"

I saw a couple other D1 kids wrestling pretty well, but they didn't make the Quarters. Kennett's Josh Barlow won 3 before losing 3-2 in the Round of 16. His first win was in the Round of 128, I kid you not.

Still wrestling in the consolation rounds: Sam Kuhns-Pennridge  Hunter Delaney-Sun Valley 
I probably missed a few guys. They only identify the wrestlers by state. 

It's remarkable and pretty unbelievable that Faith entered nine wrestlers (that I recognized) and none have lost a match.
