FloWrestler of the Week: Mark Hall, Apple Valley, MN
To say that Mark Hall is impressive may be true, but it might be an understatement of how incredible he truly is.

With his dominant win in the 170-pound state finals, Hall became the first Minnesota High School wrestler to win six straight state titles as he capped off his high school career. On his way to the finals he recorded two pins and a technical fall before adding his final tech of the night in 2:50 over Hastings’ Austin Eichmann. He also became the first ever six-time sectional champion in MSHSL history.



Now, Hall will be taking his impressive resume to Penn State where he will somehow add more fire power to an already loaded squad.

But we would be remissed if we didn’t if we didn’t take a look at the incredible wins that “The Prodigy” has collected.

WNO: defeats Anthony Valencia for #1 pound-for-pound and 170-pound ranking.



US Open: defeats Jason Nolf for US Open title.



MSHSL State Finals: defeats Austin Eichmann for 6th state title.


It’s Hall’s impressive resume along with incredible accomplishment of his sixth title that make him our FloWrestler of the Week presented by Cliff Keen.
