HAYS -- Jayhawk-Linn's Alan Johnson had a 1-2 record in the 215-pound bracket at the Class 3-2-1A State Wrestling Tournament here over the weekend.

Jackson, the only Jayhawk qualifier, won his first match by pinning Matt Bosworth of Central-Burden

Johnson's next match was against Oakley's Aaron Racette, who took that by a 13-2 score.

Saturday morning, Kyle Anderson of Cimarron eliminated Johnson by pinfall.

Johnson's performance did score four team points for the Jayhawks.
