Stillwater hosted and won the 6A East Regional on Saturday, but that win didn’t come without a lot of conversation and intrigue.
The biggest storyline of the weekend was the match that didn’t happen. Wrestling fans across the state were ready to watch the most anticipated bout of the year in Oklahoma High School Wrestling between Stillwater’s Angelo Ferrari and Owasso’s Jordan Williams.
Ferrari and Williams both rolled to the finals, but on Saturday morning Ferrari didn’t weigh in. Rumors around the tournament swirled that Ferrari suffered some sort of injury in the semifinals Friday and it’s still somewhat unclear what his status is, but Stillwater Head Coach Ethan Kyle did provide some comments on the situation in his post-tournament interview.
