On Saturday, nine Bears entered the 3rd Annual NYSAISAA Wrestling tournament and Eze Barrah and Forest Kaplan-Walbrecht each medaled for the Brook.

In the 106 lbs bracket, Kaplan-Walbrecht fell in his first round match, but topped Collegiate’s Trevor Lai to earn a spot in the consolation final where he lost on a pin to earn a 4th place finish.

In the 195 lbs bracket, Barrah pinned Rye Country Day’s Ahmed Suliman in 3:26 before falling to Dalton’s Elie Farah to earn the runner-up spot.
