?Bailey was taken down, got out of that real quick and scrambled back for an impressive win,? Miller said.

Trojan Michael Fritz (195), currently ranked No. 5 in Iowa at Class 2A, defeated Louis Long in a 10-3 decision.

?It was another good, solid win for Michael and this was a win against a solid opponent,? Miller said.

?Overall,? said Miller, ?our guys did a fine job on Thursday. I like that our guys continue to show that they won?t quit.?
