Marion High School wrestler Brody Carroll placed fifth Saturday in the 130-pound class at the 3A state tournament in Hays.

The sophomore grappler defeated Jacob Schroeder of Silver Lake, 6-0, in the fifth-place match.

Carroll also bested Gabby Speer of Doniphan West in his first-round match by pin and Michael Dusin of Phillipsburg, 4-0, in his first match in the consolation bracket.

Carroll’s only two losses came at the hands of Gage Younger of Ellis, 6-3, in the second round and Riley Soward of Halstead in a consolation semifinal.
