MARION — Barnesville placed third at the Ohio High School Wrestling Association Division III State Duals Saturday at Marion Elgin High School.

The No. 4 Shamrocks defeated fifth-seeded Delta, 35-34, in their quarterfinal match before dropping a 50-18 decision to top-seeded and eventual champion Waynedale in the semifinals. Barnesville bounced back to top Lake Catholic, 39-36, in the third-place match.

Half-a-dozen Shamrocks went 2-1 on the day, led by junior Christien Hannahs (215) with a pair of pins. It was his fall in 3:40 against Delta that provided the winning margin.

Classmate Colt Carpenter (144/150) earned a pin and decision, while freshman Jaxon Aberegg (120) posted a pin and decision. Senior Hines Ford (175) won by pin and was awarded a forfeit, as did freshman Hoyt Hartshorn (113). Junior Easton Stephen (106) won by decision and was also awarded a forfeit.
