The Tri-County Sunday and Courier Express newspapers in Dubois have named their 2015 Wrestling All-Star Team. This year’s squad, announced today (Sunday, March 22nd), includes five Clarion Area Wrestlers.
Leading the local contingent is junior Zach Sintobin, who made the First Team at 195. Sintobin went 30-9 on the season. He was the District Nine Class A Champion and finished third in the Northwest Regional Meet, to advance to States. This was the third year in a row that Sintobin advanced to Regionals.
Making the Second Team was senior Jacob Troutman (170), who finished second in the District Nine Tournament to advance to Regionals. Troutman, who was late getting on the mat this past season, due to a football injury, had a fine 15-5 record.
