The Barrientos won in their return to Lew-Port, five from Lockport's new girls program made the podium and Wilson's reigning state qualifier Hamza Merrick just missed on winning the 285-pound final.

Here's my wrap on the Knuutila Tournament @GNN_Sports_https://t.co/dwUHNBG2jn
SANBORN - Jaron Barrientos and Brayden Kellison now wear different school colors but the intensity was on full display again.
While with Newfane last year, Kellison defeated Barrientos, then with Starpoint, in a 7-1 decision during the 102-pound final of the 2022 Linda C. Knuutila Memorial tournament, one of three meetings all season. Two years ago, Barrientos also came up short against Kellison, placing fourth in the Division II state qualifier while with Lewiston-Porter.
