Hamilton Southeastern High School

The Hamilton Southeastern Royals were able pull off a 2nd place finish at the Rick and Rohl Invite in Jasper this weekend behind #1 ranked and heavy favorites to win state, Brownsburg Bulldogs. The Royals showed some signs of strength but also dropped some matches they would like back in this early season tune up. Leading the way in Jasper was the lone Weight class champ for HSE, Sophomore Cohen Davis. Cohen scored bonus points in every match along his way to a title, including a fall in the finals bout. Cohen is about to have a breakout season for sure and is one to watch. The Royals were bolstered by 2 runner ups (Landon Hicks, Will Lakes) as well as 3 3rd placers (Owen McGuire, Parker Culp, Chris Casler), and 4 4th placers (Aidan Smalley, Matthew Billet, Grady Wafford, and AW Vankirk). Finishing up the team scoring, Evan Lawhead took 5th, Xander Huynh 6th and Reid Snider 7th. The Royals will be back in action on Wednesday December 4th for the home opener against a tough Avon squad. Lots of work to do before then!
