Mid-Valley wrestlers won seven state titles Sunday at the OSAA state championships at Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

In 6A boys, McNary’s Max Blanco (106 pounds) and Josh Friesen (170 pounds) won state championships.

“I knew I was going to win, kind of,” said Blanco, who won 9-7 in the title match. “When it was 7-7, I’ve got to go all out now. I’ve got to give it everything I’ve got.”

In 6A/5A girls, West Salem’s Reese Lawson (145 pound), North Salem’s Mariko Sonis (120 pounds), McNary’s Ali Martinez (190 pounds) and Dallas’s Polly Olliff (105 pounds) won state championships.

“I was really focused,” Lawson said. “I was really nervous, but I knew if I stuck to what I know how to do, I’d do good.”

In 5A boys, Central’s Ethan Dunigan won the 152-pound state championship.

The top Mid-Valley boys team was Dallas, which placed fifth in 5A.

The top Mid-Valley girls team was McKay, which placed fifth in 6A/5A.
