Consolation Chaos
There are a handful of Michigan grapplers still alive in the wrestlebacks.  We dont have many bout results, however, we do know some of who is in and who is out.  8th grader Jordan Thomas just defeated of Isiah Gonzalez of Montini Catholic, IL 1-0 to stay alive at 145lbs.  Craig Eifert of Mason was recently eliminated.  We will try to get some more updates on who is still alive.  Rickard, McDermitt and Boan all just dropped to the consis and should be coming up.
Stay tuned for more...
