Standout Vashon wrestler Adrian St. Germain continues to rack up honors and was recently chosen to be on the Washington State Schoolboy National Dual Team for the second year in a row.

The team was made up of the top wrestlers in each weight class in Washington. They competed against teams from other states across the nation at the USA National Schoolboy/girl Duals earlier this month in Indianapolis.

The Washington team placed second in Greco and third in Freestyle. St. Germain was personally undefeated at the tournament and often wrestled up one weight class to ensure the win against very strong teams.

St. Germain, who hasn’t lost a match since June of 2014, was the team captain, and coaches reported that he kept the other wrestlers’ spirits high on and off the match.

He will begin high school this fall and is currently raising money to compete at the ASICS Kids Nationals, which will take place in Wisconsin from June 30 through July 2. To donate, see gofundme.com/wu9q4ck.
