The Journeymen World Classic Freestyle Wrestling Tournament and Duals was held on April 4th and 5th at Union College in Schenectady, New York. The Tournament was held on Saturday and on Friday there was a dual meet with World competitors versus USA Wrestlers. It appears the dual meet was an exhibition gathering as there has been no reported team score to our knowledge.

In tournament action, the USA claimed seven titles to six for representatives from around the world. Leading the way for the USA was New Jersey with three champions, the Kennys from Christian Brothers Academy, Sean (114) and Paul (132) and Blair Academy’s Anthony Curlo (107).  

The Kennys competed for The Academy with Paul, who is ranked 4th at 120 in the nation, at 132 where he took on and defeated a fellow Garden State grappler, Blair Academy’s Vincenzo Anello (No. 13 at 126), 11-4. Sean (No. 12) and his finals opponent, No. 28 William Soto (Newburgh Free Academy, NY), were both at 106 during the season. Sean took top honors with a 4-2 decision of Soto. Soto beat No. 18 at 106, Wyatt Stauffer (Wyoming Seminary, PA), by a 10-0 technical fall in the semis.

Sean also used a tech for his victory in Friday night’s dual with the World Team when he disposed of Mongolia’s Temuujin Dugerjav, 10-0. In Freestyle a technical fall/technical superiority is earned with a ten-point margin instead of the 15 needed in Folkstyle. Curlo did not come close to an outcome of that nature though, as he edged Ethan Andreula (Long Beach, NY), 4-3, for his gold.

The Kennys’ high school teammate, Honorable Mention in the national 132lb ratings, Robert Duffy placed ninth at 145. The 145lb weight had eight pools with the winner of each advancing to the championship bracket. Duffy’s loss to Pennsylvnia’s Jason Dube (Spire Academy, OH), 10-4, in Pool H dropped him to the first consolation bracket.

Duffy won that bracket to place ninth with a 14-4 tech of Connecticut’s Anthony Basile, repping Northfield Mount Hermon. In other Pool H action, Duffy pinned Blair’s Weston Borgers (HM at 138) in the second period, 3:36. There was no champion decided at 145 as Dube chose not to engage with his Spire compadre, Ryan Kennedy, so their scheduled meeting was not contested.

New York’s Dunia Sibomana (Long Beach) was named one of the Outstanding Wrestlers after winning a rematch of his 116lb state final with Newburgh’s No. 17 Cooper Merli (Iron Horse), by a tech, 14-4, for the 121lb title. Sibomana, who is ranked 12th at 113, pinned Merli in overtime of the state final and also handled his rival in the Eastern States finals, in overtime, 10-4. Merli participated in the dual where he teched Georgia’s Nozadze Levan, 12-2.

Virginia ended with two titlists but came incredible close to that being a single champ were it not for a late rally in the 138lb final from No. 14 Tyler DeKraker (Chantilly) to gain the advantage over No. 24 Dale Corbin (Wyoming Seminary). Their match ended 6-6, but in FS, if there is a tie, the wrestler that scored last is declared the victor, there is no overtime. DeKraker had an easier time in the dual with Kyrgyzstan’s Tuganbaev Baiel, posting a 10-0 tech.

Benjamin Weader, like DeKraker  from Chantilly High and representing Integrity here, won the 160lb title with a 10-0 tech of Wisconsin’s Declan Koch (Askren Wrestling Academy). Weader, who is ranked 18th at 165, also won his bout in the dual, 11-4, over Zandanbat Batsaikhan of Mongolia.

Tennessee’s Ace Hudson Chittum won the tournament and his dual match. The Minion grappler blanked Michigan Premier’s Brody Compau, 10-0, for the tournament crown, and did the same to Sano Restrepo, 10-0. Restrepo was a member of the world squad here but wrestled in New York during the season for Sachem East and did not qualify for states.

Winning a title for Germany at 170lbs was 2024 U17 World Silver Medalist, Manuel Wagin, who downed No. 10 at 165, Salah Tsarni of Maryland (Bullis/Capital Wrestling Club), 7-1. If Wagin’s name rings a bell, its’ because at the Worlds he took out No. 2 at 165, Melvin Miller (Bishop McCort, PA), 7-1. Miller went on to place fifth.

Armenia’s Yepremyan Razmik ended Perry Hall’s Victor Marks-Jenkins’ Cinderella run with a 10-0 tech in their finals meeting. The Marylander, who wrestled with Punisher Wrestling Club at Journeymen, is ranked 25th in the country at 175lbs. The junior moved up to 190 and found tremendous success starting in the pool rounds where he was holding a 13-8 lead over No. 11 Tanner Hodgins (Howell, NJ) when he had to medically forfeit due to a knee injury. In the bracketed semifinal showdown with No. 9 Maximus Konopka (Simsbury, CT), Marks-Jenkins teched his foe, 15-2. Razmik was a 2023 U17 European Runner-up and placed 10th in Europe in the U20 brackets in 2024.

Armenia had a second champ at 126 with Papikyan Armen who posted a 24-13 tech of New York’s Nico Rivera (Mohonasen/Hammer Wrestling Club). Armen dropped Virginia’s Evan Sanati (Integrity, No. 30 at 132) into the fifth-place bracket with a 12-1 tech in the pool rounds. Rivera won an 8-8 decision with Wyoming Seminary’s Nikos Filipos in his pool. Filipos beat Zhigitali Uulu Rashid of Kyrgyzstan, 14-3, in dual meet action.

2024 Asian U17 Champion, Nurdinov Nursadyk of Kyrgyzstan won the 152lb gold and Outstanding Wrestler award after a 12-0 tech of New York’s Luke Nieto (Plainedge/Savage). In 2023 Mongolia’s Narantulga Darmaabazar was 5th in Asia in U17 FS and did not compete last year. Darmaabazar won the 285lb crown, 11-0, versus Charles Weidman (Xavier, CT).

Georgia’s Todua Aleksi decked Wisconsin’s Garett Kawczynski (Port Washinton/Askren WA) in 57 seconds to win the 225lb bracket. Kawczynski, who is unranked, used an 11-0 upset of No. 26 Kingston Daniells Silva (The Edge/Greens Farms Academy, CT) to win Pool C. Kawczynski also won his dual matchup with Mongolian National Champ, Demuul Ariuntuya, 13-1.

(There was also a “B Division”, but the top talent was in the A, so that was our focus)
