Thirty names of state qualifiers line the Southwestern wrestling mat.

Now the Trojans will have to make room for one more.

Dontae Hoose beat Franklinville/Cuba-Rushford's Kyle Wittenrich, 10-1, in the 195-pound final at the Section VI Division II wrestling state qualifier Saturday evening in front of a home crowd at Southwestern.

"Being here with all of my family supporting me … it was amazing," Hoose said of wrestling at home. "I'm going to be right there with all my brothers on that mat. It's going to be amazing."
