Last night, the Farmers went 2–0 in duals, defeating Midwest Central by a score of 40–33 and avenging a previous loss to Knoxville with a 43–36 victory.
Farmington’s lone senior, Bradlee Ellis, earned his 150th career win in dramatic fashion by pinning his Knoxville opponent in the first period during his final home dual as a Farmer. He was joined on the mat by freshman Isaac Showalter, Jackson Ralph, Isaac Flora, Xander Simerly, and sophomores Gage Williamson and Jonathan Peters, all of whom finished the night with a perfect 2–0 record.
Senior Night was also celebrated last night, as the program recognized Emma Slayton (manager) and Bradlee Ellis for their contributions to the team.
This weekend, we look forward to seeing undefeated freshman standout Isaac Showalter (32–0), along with senior Bradlee Ellis (30–1), lead the charge at the Orion Invite as they wrap up their final regular-season tournament.
