2022 NCAA Qualifiers from Ohio
I try to make this list every year, partly to recognize these guys and partly to let everyone reminisce on state tourneys past. Everybody on the list has Ohio as their listed state on the official team page, so if a wrestler moved (and lists another high school/state on their page) or went to...

I don't know Ryan personally. Met him at the Wilmington District. Classy kid and happy to see him competing so well at the state tournament. Very tough young man.

Wilmington district did pretty well this weekend. Wilmington had 3 state placers, Ross had someone place. Also had Miami Trace get a couple of placers (they were in the GA district). Not necessarily Cincinnati, but the SW area as a whole.
Acuna was a man on a mission after his lone loss. He looked fantastic this past weekend.

Pierce Taylor from McNicholas won the D-III title at 144. This was no surprise, as both borofan and bucksman predicted he would win it. What is unique about his situation is that this year he was the only member of the Rockets' wrestling team. Although the sole member of a team probably has won a title before, it has to be a rare situation. Props to the schools Taylor said he was able to practice with: Moeller, LaSalle, and Anderson.

In 2000, Tom Smith from Cardington won state at 135 Div III as the only Cardington wrestler.

Ryan Iams from Ross is as well. There is actually quite a few that are at least two sport guys. Emmons from Badin, Stuckey from Wilmington, Brooks form Wilmington just off the top of my head. I am sure i am missing quite a few.
