Mason will send seven wrestlers to state and 1 state alternate, the most of any local Division I school. Elder and Moeller both advanced six grapplers. All 13 wrestlers who qualified for the district tournament won matches and scored points to help propel the team to a dominating performance and team victory. The "Home Grown" group of Mason Wrestlers placed 1st out of 48 Division one wrestling teams to capture the Southwest Ohio District Wrestling Title.

Traveling to state for the Comets are: Zack Donathan (106), Patrick Kearney (113), Colin Schuster (120), Nick D'Agostino (152), Cameron Pitts (170), Jordan Collins (182) and Sheldon Sims (220). Seth Warwick (195) will advance to state as alternate.

"It's been a long time coming," Mason coach Craig Murnan said. "We set out March last year after our banquet and our kids committed to what we needed to do and we had this on our radar since the end of the last state tournament. It's a great group of kids, they're all a product of our junior high program."

Kearney and Donathan are returning state qualifiers, Murnan added.

"We have high expectations, we want to be on the board and we think we can be high on the board," Murnan said referring to the scoreboard at state. "But up there (at state) crazy things can happen. I do know our kids will come to wrestle."

The Team heads into the State Individual Tournament with the following post season team accomplishments.
