Instructor as be won the 133 lb class and didnt allow any of his opponents to come within six points of him Eric outclassed all his challengers and for this event dropped down from 130 lbe to 123 lbs Although Eric has wrestled all season at the higher weight coach Martin felt that Eric a optimum weight was 123 and Erics win Justified the belief On his way to the win Eric defeated both the AllOntario champion and runnerup in this class Its been quite a year for young Mr He was named Most Valuable Wrestler in two of this years tournaments Is the AllOntario Champion at lbs and as of last weekend Is the Ontario Junior Free StyleChamplonatmlba There are still two more honours for Eric to shoot for this year but at this point In his wrestling career they may be slightly beyond nil reach
