Missouri Military Academy’s leading wrestler, Christopher Bryant, only took the mat for a second. The 182-pounder had byes to the final, but was expecting to square off against North Callaway’s Joshua Shelby.
However, Shelby was forced to bow out due to an injury from his previous match. So Bryant raised his arm and watched the rest of the Class 1 District 2 tournament at Palmyra on Saturday.
“I’ve never seen that before in a championship,” said MMA head coach Tom Allen.
For the Colonels it was a successful day. Seven of the eight wrestlers they brought to the tourney advanced to sectionals.
