		It would take 2 pins (or 3 victories) in the 3 remaining matches for Iowa-Grant to pull out a 1-point victory, and Mineral Point was picked to get a technical fall or a pin in 2 of those matches.
		Donny was unavailable for an interview, however, and those were JV matches that he was in, so I’m going to add Donny Hughes to the All-Kosek Team at 140, but only to the Junior Varsity.
