Christopher Bryant swept the 182 weight class to remain unbeaten on the season and claim a sectional championship on Saturday in Palmyra. He will be joined in Independence for the state tournament on March 10 by Phasakorn Cunningham and Pedro Garduno.
“We had a good day,” said Missouri Military Academy head coach Tom Allen, who brought seven wrestlers to the Class 1 Section 1 tournament.
Bryant has been a handful for opponents all season, going 21-0. On Saturday he took down Riley Barnes of Hallsville by fall at 2:59. He then squared off against Artez May from Lift for Life Academy in a more demanding match.
