Team Virginia went 2-6 in Greco to take 16th place out of 34 teams from across the nation. We made the Bronze Medal Pool with 2 early wins. If we excluded the forfeit points and just scored the individual matches that were wrestled Team Va  would have gone 7-1 in Greco dual matches. The kids on the mat were some of the best at the tournament and this statistic proves it.
