Joy powers into state quarters with first-round upset
Columbus Wadsworth sophomore Jaxon Joy toppled state champion Peyton Fenton 8 4 at 120 pounds in the Division I state tournament opening round at the Jerome Schottenstein Center. Joy aims for the title after last year's final loss and trains year round with this goal in mind. Medina County’s Marcus Jay added to a big local run as 12 wrestlers reached quarterfinals, with zero surprise from Joy’s confidence in facing deeper rounds.
