Grayson Mullin, Notre Dame 112-pounder, had a short stay at the state wrestling tournament, getting upset on Thursday in his first match. “He is so disappointed and we are disappointed for him,” Irish coach John Mullin said. “He has been sick since Thursday afternoon with some kind of stomach flu.” Mullin, a sophomore, placed fourth in the 103-pound weight class last year.
Hixson 171-pounder Justin Mathieson suffered at least a severe ankle sprain on Friday and Wildcats coach Garrick Hall decided that Mathieson was have to exit the tournament via injury default.
“Justin got his ankle extended at the edge of the mat and the kid rolled over it,” Hall said. “It may be broken.”
