Aiden Robertson (open age 12-andyounger division, 100105 pounds) and Liam Randolph (open age 8-and-younger, 58) came in fourth at Brushy.

In the organization’s own tournament last Saturday, Gore Pirates Youth Wrestling finished 10th in the team standings with 78 points.

Hastin Chitty won two titles in his own tournament as he won the 43-pound championships in the age 6-and-younger division and in the novice age 8-and-younger division, while Jax York won the 37-pound title in the age 6-and-younger division.

Mannon was the champion at 70 pounds in the girls age 10-andyounger division, while coming in second at 70 pounds in the open age 10-and-younger division.

Three other members were multiple placers for the organization as Stetson Andrews was second at 70 pounds in the novice age 8-andyounger division and third at 70 pounds in the novice age 10-andyounger division, Everly York was runner-up at 83 pounds in the novice age 8-and-younger division and third at 83 pounds in the girls age 8-and-younger division and Dawson York was third at 43 pounds in the age 6-and-younger division and fourth at 43 pounds in the novice age 8-and-younger division.
