The three sectional qualifiers were: KeOntay Holmes, second at 182 pounds. The Redbirds’ Garrett Sims was second place at 113 pounds and Keyondrick Russell third at 195.

The top three finishers in each of the 14 weight divisions advance from regional to sectional tournament.

“The final round was a little disappointing,” Alton head wrestling coach Eric Roberson said. “We had a pretty, good start at the day. We had some matches where we made some mistakes. We have to make sure we finish the matches. The kids have been competitive; we just have to be finishers.”
