Six Oakland County wrestlers stood atop the D1 podium after capturing first at Saturday’s individual wrestling state finals at Ford Field.

Among them were Detroit Catholic Central’s Connor Bercume and Rochester Adams’ Jace Morgan, whose championships each capped off unblemished senior seasons.

Standing in the way of Morgan, a 138-pounder, in the finals was Clarkston’s Preston LeFevre. The Wolves senior entered with a 45-2 record, one of those losses a 5-2 decision dropped to Morgan on Dec. 14 at the Oakland County Championships.

Again, Morgan had the upper-hand and had his raised following a 10-0 decision over LeFevre. It gave the Highlanders their first individual title in several decades and capped off a decorated prep career for Morgan, who will continue his craft at Michigan State.

Bercume, meanwhile, won his first two matches by fall, then defeated Davison’s Brandon Glisson, who he had also taken down just a little more than a week prior in the finals to help the Shamrocks win a team state championship.

In the final, the 215-pounder took a 10-2 decision over Brighton senior Sean O’Keefe.

For Bercume, it was a third state title in a row. That put him in identical company with teammate Wyatt Lees, though next year he’ll have a chance to make it four. Lees also had a Davison opponent in the way for his penultimate match, but had to beat his own teammate in Shamrocks sophomore Ryan Totten in the first-place match, which he did narrowly with a 3-0 decision.

Already a state champ as a freshman, Catholic Central sophomore Grayson Fuchs made it 2-for-2 on Saturday. He also went through a Davison wrestler, in this case Tanner McDunnah, and Fuchs, who to that point had won all his matches by technical fall, beat McDunnah 14-2 in the 144-pound final.

From the state champion Shamrocks, the fourth first-place finish came from Lee Krueger, who picked up his first individual championship as a senior. He edged by Brighton’s Sullivan Haas with a 4-3 decision earlier in the process, then beat Romeo’s Thomas Jaynes, who had amassed 50 wins this year, via an 11-0 decision in the 190-pound championship match.

From Clarkston, Archer Anderson (126 pounds) also went out with a bang. Already a state champ and two-time finalist, he met Rochester Adams sophomore Deacon Morgan in the finals, who had beaten Catholic Central’s Mack Moscovic in the semis by decision, 4-3.

In the title match, Anderson, headed to Central Michigan, beat Morgan by decision, 14-9, for his second championship.

The other county runner-up was Oxford’s Luke Johnson, who beat Stoney Creek’s Edward Barkham by decision in the semifinals. Johnson fell to Saginaw United’s Michael Baldwin by ultimate tiebreaker (7-6) in the final to finish second at 175 pounds.

Oxford’s Gavin Lewis, Catholic Central’s Caden Krueger and Clarkston’s Camden Neumann all finished third place at the event. Moscovic of Catholic Central fell in his consolation to take fourth, while Clarkston’s Nathaniel Carter and Novi’s Anthony Madafferi also left with fourth-place finishes.

The girls state and individual championships were also decided Saturday in Detroit and saw several county grapplers take first.

Oxford junior Cheyenne Frank, a junior, maintained her unbeaten season by taking a 9-4 decision over Algonac’s Sky Langewicz to win the title at 120 pounds.

Also undefeated heading into the weekend, South Lyon East senior Isabella Cepak won by fall in the semifinals against West Bloomfield senior Tamari Khizanishvili (third place), then also won a quick fall over Allegan’s Dawn Degood for the 135-pound championship.

Kanata Richardson, a junior at Bloomfield Hills, was on the right side of two close decisions in several of her matches on the way to the 190-pound final, then was the better on the mat again when she beat Midland’s Halle Spears (4-2 decision) to take first.

Royal Oak Shrine senior Katrina Shammami beat Grand Haven’s Isabelle Wisenbaugh in the consolation final at 155 pounds to take third. West Bloomfield senior Alexandria Hampton ended her career with a fourth-place finish at 145 pounds.

Grand Haven won the team title with 69.5 points. The highest county finisher was West Bloomfield at fifth place with 50.5 points. Oxford followed (T-14th) with 34 points, then South Lyon East (T-18th) with 30 points, Bloomfield Hills (T-27th) with 24 and Shrine (T-31st) with 23.
