Saturday night, one of the mainstays of the high school wrestling calendar took place when FloWrestling hosted their Who’s #1 event. Most of the top high schoolers descended on Austin, Texas, for a chance to stake their claim at the top spot in their respective weight classes. The result was a highly entertaining evening that showed a little bit of everything. Overtime/tiebreaker matches, breakout performances, domination, and simply, some hard-fought scraps. Below are the full results from the Who’s #1 (WNO) along with five takeaways from the night of action.
