Pat Downey pinned Kyle Humphries in 1:13
Foxboro High School's Victor Avery went 48-0 and was the Massachussetts state champ as well as the All-States champion. He won the states with a 42-second pin, and was a Division III state champ. Did not allow a single offensive point on the way to winning Division III states. Headed for Edinboro.

St. Peters Prep's James Fox went 43-0, was named Outstanding Wrestler after winning the prestigious Beast of The East Tournament at the University of Delaware, and was named New Jersey's Wrestler of The Year after becoming his school's first-ever state champion. Bound for Harvard.
Utah's Derek Thomas of Layton High was a two-time Class 5A state champ after having finished fourth as a sophomore. He will wrestle for Utah Valley.
Clay Center's Zach Anderson won a Kansas state title to complete a 43-1 season after having been a runner-up during his junior year.
East Long Meadow High's Zach Humphries went 41-0 and won a Division I state title in Massachuessets. The 6-foot-2 Humphries lost to Avery, 7-4, in the All-State Tournament finals, but was pinned by Downey for the first time this year.

| Only one loss combined amongst 4 out of 5 of his opponents the entire year, as Derek Thomas' record is not mentioned. Very tough road to the Championship. Way to go, Pat.
Thanks to Coach Yoakum for giving Pat an opportunity to compete for the Perry Hall Gators in the MJWL during his last year in Junior League.
