Eight Chadron State College men’s wrestlers placed on Saturday at the Younes Hospitality Open in Kearney, hosted at the Buffalo County Fairgrounds.
Three men placed in the Elite brackets, where primarily varsity wrestlers and veterans compete, while five were in the Amateur brackets against freshmen and junior varsity competition.
Junior Quentrevion Campbell was the runner-up in the Elite 133-pound competition. His route to the finals included victories by decision over NAIA No. 12 Alex Pena of Wayland Baptist and Division II No. 1 Reece Barnhardt. His loss in the finals came to a two-time NCAA Division I qualifier from Nebraska.
In the Elite 125 bracket, sophomore Quade Smith started off with a sudden victory win over NAIA No. 12 Johnathon Ortegon. He lost his third match 6-0, but came back through consolations to defeat No. 9 Patrick Allis of Western Colorado in the third place match.
Junior Ethan Leake was the other placer in the Elite brackets, at 141 pounds. Going 5-1, every match he wrestled was a simple decision, including a sudden victory win over No. 7 Grayston DiBlasi of Colorado School of Mines. He finished off with a 9-5 win over a Kearney wrestler in the third place match.
In the Amateur brackets, redshirt freshman Keegan Gehlhausen led the younger cohort by getting to the 184-pound finals, where he lost 13-11.
Freshmen Hunter Gilmore, at 141, and Logan Berger, at 165, both placed third by getting to the semifinals, losing a close decision, and then advancing through consolations. In Berger’s case, he came to the consolation semifinals having only wrestled four times, and his opponents had reached their match limits.
Freshman Hayden Burr was fifth in the 184-pound Amateurs, losing to Gehlhausen in the semifinal. Sophomore Darwin Hull fell to sixth in the same bracket after meeting his match limit in consolations.
The CSC wrestlers take the holiday week off of competition, before hosting a quad meet on December 4.
