Finalists: Kendon Lee-Kayser (Brusly) vs. Tyler Bradley (Pace)

Last week Brusly freshman Kendon Lee-Keyser stunned Comeaux's returning Division I state runner-up Connor Stampley 12-6 in the semifinals of the St. Michael Warrior Open. This week he faced two Florida wrestlers ranked in the top 15 of their respective divisions.  This bothered Lee-Keyser not at all.

In the finals the freshman faced Pace High School's Taylor Bradley.  In a relatively tame first period Lee-Keyser opened a 2-0 lead.  Constantly riding legs and hanging onto Bradley when the Patriot wrestler stood up, Lee-Keyser increased his lead to 4-0 with a second period reversal. That was cut in half with a reversal by Bradley in the third period, but Lee-Keyser reversed right back and added a couple of nearfall points.  As the clock ran down Lee-Keyser had an 8-2 win.  Additionally, Lee-Keyser was voted the Outstanding Wrestler in the lower weight classes. 
Assistant Brusly coach Rodney Sutherland buckles Kendon Lee-Keysers OW belt on the Brusly freshman (as best as he was able).  Lee-Keyser and his new accoutrement.  Lee-Keyser with the Outstanding Wrestler of the heavier weight classes, Coltan Jackson of The Villages High School.
