BELLVILLE — Galion had three wrestlers win individual championships in the Mid-Ohio Athletic Conference tournament at Clear Fork High School on Saturday.
Carter Trukovich (113), Gradey Harding (120) and Alex Griffith (285) captured first place honors.
Ontario had four solo champions and won the meet edging Highland, 255-231.
Marion County was well represented, as Pleasant took fourth and River Valley tied with Galion for fifth. Harding was sixth, ahead of Shelby.
Daxton Chase and Sam Mentzer took first-place honors for Pleasant. Chase set a school record en route to winning his third MOAC championship, taking the 150-pound title with three tech falls and two pins.
For Mentzer, at 165, it was his first title as he defeated Clear Fork’s Luke Schlosser, who beat him in last year’s tournament.
