Nick Henneman (Oregon, Ohio/Clay H.S.) and Garrett Carter (Macedonia, Ohio/Saint Vincent-Saint Mary H.S.) continued the momentum, with both recording major decisions at 141 and 149 pounds respectively.  Henneman was a 13-2 victor while Carter won 16-4.
 
Garret Anderson (Oregon, Ohio/Clay H.S.) made it a perfect 5-for-5 to start the day for Lourdes winning a 7-2 decision in the 157-pound weight class.
 
After Defiance (0-1) earned wins at 165 and 174, Isaac Ingram (Lima, Ohio/Bath H.S.) scored a 9-5 decision at 184 pounds to continue the Gray Wolves' winning ways.
 
The Yellow Jackets earned won final win at 197 before Alec Moore-Nash (Price Hill, Ohio/Elder H.S.) capped the night with a pin just 29 seconds into his heavyweight bout.
 
"We have a short window of time to work on some areas where we need improvement, but I'm looking forward to competing this weekend," Kelly concluded.
