Finals

Travis Viener (Brother Martin) pinned Tyler Troncoso (Rummel) in 3:01

Viener started the scoring with a single-leg attempt that he dropped to an ankle, forcing Troncoso to turn to his stomach and allow Viener to get behind him.  The first round ended 2-0.  In the second period Viener gave Troncoso an escape, and it almost backfired when Troncoso almost scored a takedown by spinning around Viener when the Brother Martin grappler was on his knees.  Troncoso, however, was too high on Viener's back when he tried to spin behind him and Viener was able to catch Troncoso's head, pull him over, switch to a head-and-arm and score a fall.

Seeding Implications: The only thing working against Jesuit's Guy Patron, Jr. is mat time, in that he seems not to be getting enough of it.  In his seven matches he has gone the distance, or whatever was allowed until he scored a technical fall, once.  His other matches have exceeded two minutes only once, and his two tournament finals wins were against the finalists in this tournament, Viener in the Warrior and Troncoso at Mandeville.  But he has yet to meet Hahnville's returning state champion Kenderick Jones, the Griffin Open champion, who for now is a solid second choice.
