Junior A.J. Wagner won one match in the Class 1A state finals, but fell short of earning a medal.
Wagner rebounded from an opening-round 4-0 loss to fifth-ranked Michael DiBenedetto, from IC Catholic, to turn back Mount Carmel’s Cade Keepes 5-1 in his first wrestleback bout.
He then suffered a season-ending 5-0 decision to Mercer County’s Broctyn King, who went on to place sixth. Wagner ended the season with a 42-10 record.
Spartan teammate Isaiah Immke dropped both of his state bouts. He lost 12-4 to Robinson’s Jeff Hermann and 7-5 to Putnam County’s Connor Booker.
Immke ended his junior year with a 20-9 record.
