INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – After falling to third place at last year’s tournament, Illinois burst into cheers after they beat Team Michigan Blue 49-30 and became the 2018 Schoolboy/girl National Greco-Roman Duals Champions.
In the final face-off, Illinois won twelve matches, while Team Michigan Blue only captured six wins.

Two Team Michigan Blue athletes put their opponents to their backs – Joshua Boggan (187) and Evan Herriman (106). Two more athletes from Team Michigan Blue won by technical fall – Logan Badge (250) and Nolan Wertanen (77).
Minnesota Blue defeated Pennsylvania Blue, 42-35. Both teams claimed nine wins, but it was bonus points that decided the bronze-medal dual meet.
