Hall and Whitford win Trinity Award with Reno Titles
4/11 - Mark Hall of Davison and Ben Whitford of Holt did something last weekend that no Michigan youth has ever done as they won the prestigous Trinity Award. Hall and Whitford won the Reno World Championships last weekend to complete the final leg of the Trinity award. Whitford won at 89lbs in the 15-18 year old division while Hall was named outstanding wrestler of the 9-10 year old division as he racked up five falls en route to the 90lb title.
Two other Michiganders put together solid performances to finish third. Dominic Sutemeister of Flushing narrowly missed the Trinity Award as he finished 3rd at 76lbs in the 9-10 division and Jacob Schmitt of St Johns finished runner up at 73lbs in 11-12 after losing a tight overtime finals match.
