‘Cause you burn with the brightest flame
And the world’s gonna know your name
And you’ll be on the walls of the Hall of Fame

The St. Johns Redwings will be represented in the MHSAA Wrestling Individual State Finals for the twenty-first consecutive year. Brady Heibeck and Donovan Quin both qualified this year. Donovan took 3rd in his regional tournament and has a 30-2 record at 106 lbs, while Brady placed 2nd in the regional tournament and has a 34-14 record at 165 lbs.

I asked Brady how he was feeling. “I’m nervous. I think it’s going to be a good experience. I’ve looked at my bracket. I can beat my first guy. My second guy is going to be tough, and I can beat the third guy.”

“I’m going to win it,” said Donovan. “I’ve studied the bracket, and I know what I’m going to do.”

Speaking of brackets:

Action gets underway Friday at Ford Field. The Grand March is slated to start at 10:00, and wrestling begins at 10:30. Wrestling starts at 9:00 on Saturday. Ford Field is cashless, so keep that in mind if you are heading down.
