John Haussermann of Norton had 3 losses heading into state junior year, had a torn bicep, lost early rounds, but came through to get 3rd over the kid who beat him earlier. Senior year he was undefeated going into state, had some troubles making weight, so was a little weak in the semis and lost, but once again came through the backside to get 3rd.
