Lawrence North graduate Reece Humphrey may have been the only Indiana wrestler to medal in the Greco-Roman competition at the USA Wrestling Junior Nationals this week in Fargo, N.D., but he upheld Hoosier pride in a big way.

Humphrey won the gold medal in the 135-pound weight class. He outlasted Cesar Grajales of Florida, 4-3, at the 8:59 mark of overtime to take the title.

Humphrey is a three-time state champion in the Indiana high school ranks. Undefeated over his last two years in high school, Humphrey will take his considerable skills to Ohio State this coming year.

The freestyle competition is now under way at the Junior Nationals. We will keep you updated on Indiana wrestlers who advance in the meet.
