Dustin Carter, left, of Hillsboro, battles Andrew Bertubin, of Cambridge, in their Division II, 103-pound match during the first round of the state wrestling tournament in Columbus, Ohio, Thursday, Feb. 28, 2008. Dustin, a quadruple amputee above both knees and at each elbow, beat Bertubin 2-1 to advance to the next round. Marion Pleasant holds a 33-30½ lead and advanced 10 of its 11 qualifiers in the Division III championship bracket and also has a wrestler in the consolation bracket who could place. Troy Christian has seven of eight still competing for titles as well as one in the consolation bracket. Troy Christian defeated Pleasant 154-151½ last year.
In Division II, St. Paris Graham holds a 32½ to 19½ advantage over Cuyahoga Falls Walsh Jesuit in its bid for an eighth straight championship. Graham still has 12 of 13 wrestlers competing, including 11 for titles on Saturday. Walsh Jesuit has six wrestlers left, with five vying for titles.
Although Division I's Lakewood St. Edward has 25 points, while Massillon Perry has 17 and Cincinnati Elder 16, St. Edward is on pace to win its 12th straight title. St. Edward has 11 in the championship bracket and one in the consolation round. Perry advanced its five wrestlers and Elder has six left with four in the championship bracket.
