Danville went 1-4 with a win over Walnut Hills, Ohio, 41-12. In addition to the loss to Boyle, the Admirals lost to LaRue 63-12, McCreary County 54-28 and Anderson County 51-18.

The brightest spot for Danville was heavyweight Jonah Welch, who improved his season record to 10-0 with a 4-0 mark at Boyle. He won three matches by pin and another by forfeit.

“It was a tough weekend, as we expected,” Danville coach Joey Sallee said via e-mail. “Welch continues to roll. … Our football guys came out this week. They only had three days of practice, so they have some kinks to work out. The rest of our guys are young, and we have to keep working hard.”

Boyle junior Derrick Witmer also went undefeated, posting a 3-0 record. Hayden Shepherd, Issiah Isaac and Cobey Blackwell all went 4-1, and Jacob Robbins went 3-1.
