In another thriller, Zach Hanson figured out a way to repeat as Greco Roman National Champion in the Novice division.

With 15 seconds to go, and down by 1, Zach hit about a dozen arm drags, and ended up in a front head lock position where he turned his opponent with 2 seconds remaining in the match!

Liam Collins in the bantam division, and Reid Ballentyne in the schoolboy division  were the highest placers in freestyle with a second place finish. Reid was dominant with his underhook throughout the tournament, and dominated his opponents(minus his loss).  

Here are the placers from USA  Freestyle and Greco Nationals.
