Nobody’s perfect.
All 12 Monroe County Region wrestling teams have at least one qualifier for the individual state finals on March 6-7 at Ford Field in Detroit.
There are a total of 46 who will compete.
But none of them go in undefeated.
The closest to perfect are Holden Otter (34-1) and Olivia Kemp (21-1) of Airport and Dundee’s Donny Beaufait (34-1) with one loss each.
Wrestlers taking just two losses to Detroit are Blake Cosby (40-2) of Dundee, Bedford’s Zach Miracle (44-2) and Abby Sotelo (11-2) of Ida.
Beaufait and Cosby are two of six wrestlers who will be defending state championships. The others are Mason Katschor, Mason Haines, Braden Broderick and Erie Mason’s Danny VanEeckhoutte.
The competition begins Friday at 10:30 a.m. Championship matches start at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
