Champion of Champions!

 The Norfolk Catholic Champion of Champions Tournament was on Saturday.  Justin weighed in at 47.6 lbs.  He was pumped up and ready to wrestle.  He had his fan club present:  Grandma Leader, Gayle Brummer and his girls, Sue and Sienna, and of course, Dad, Cara, Erica and Mom.  (Ashlin was missing because she was sick)
 In his bracket was a wrestler from Cody-Kilgore and two wrestlers from Columbus Lakeview.  First up was the wrestler from Cody-Kilgore.  Justin ended up getting the pin.
 Next, Justin won with a technical fall over a wrestler from Columbus Lakeview.
 Here Justin is going for another pin on the second wrestler from Columbus Lakeview.
 Getting ready to do a half-Nelson and getting two points for the takedown.
 After winning his bracket, then he faced a Wisner/Pilger wrestler from the other bracket on his mat to be the Champion of Champions
 Justin got the pin in the first period and won the medal for Champion of Champions!

All smiles atop the podium!!!  Two new medals to add to his stash.

Take care,
Michelle
