Fargo: The Finale

Fargo: The Finale Willie Saylor, Editor   Another incredible week at Fargo is in the books, the results of which will go down in history. Undoubtedly, the All Americans here will go a long way in determining champions and placers at the collegiate level, and will populate the list of contenders on future Olympic and World Team ladders.   We’ll recap the action, weight-by-weight, from Fargo’s finale: the Junior Freestyle finals.   There were five finalists that returned to the big stage after capturing titles in Greco earlier in the week. Double finalists were Nkosi Moody (106, IL), Cory Clark (126, IA), Zane Richards (132, IL), Sam Brooks (195, IL), and Adam Coon (HWT, MI).   Clark, Brooks, and Coon did so successfully.   Additionally, three wrestlers were looking to defend their titles. Moody, Nathan Tomasello (120, OH), Richards, all won Junior crowns last year.   On the team side, Illinois won their 3rd consecutive Junior FS title. They were paced by 12 All Americans, 6 of which were finalists. Bryce Brill (138) and Sam Brooks (195) claimed titles.   Illinois 63 team points easily out-distanced Runners-Up Iowa (51). Minnesota (48) and Pennsylvania (40) were 3rd and 4th, while Michigan and New York tied for 5th with 26 team points.   Here’s the skinny weight-by-weight:   100 Finals: Tanner Rohweder (IA) over Carlos Fuentez (IL) Dec 1-0,2-1 Rohweder was a sort of unknown commodity coming into the tournament. Fuentez had placed in FS as a Cadet two years ago. Rohweder’s quickness and movement had him winning in two straight periods.
