First Spartan to Enter; Goes 2-2 on the Day
Congratulations goes out to Senior Logan Shain who attended the Beast of the East tournament in Delaware over the Winter Break. The Beast, as it is known for short, is one of the toughest tournaments during the high school season boasting teams from as far as Wyoming and stacked private rosters like that of the famed Blair Academy.
The initial qualifier for The Beast was Senior Tarkan Martin, who was able to get in with his 2x State Qualifications, as well as an NHSCA All-American Status from a year prior. Due to injury however, Tarkan was unable to wrestle and passed his opportunity to teammate Shain.
Logan represented Broad Run well winning a close first match 2-1 and pinning his other opponent. Logan fell short of making day two, but in the end found it to be a great and educational experience. "Those guys are good," Shain said, "they are aggressive and go at you the whole time." Shain was able to take that knowledge and has been applying it to his own style and continues to improve on his way to Districts in four short weeks.
