School: Capital High School Primary Sport: Wrestling An 8-6 victory over Lewis County's Derick Merritt gave Capital's Josh Kay the Class AAA 215-pound championship. It made him the first title winner in Capital High's 21-year history. "There's been a lot of great wrestlers come through (Capital)," said Kay. "I'm just glad I was able to be the one to win it. I wish they could have won, but I'm glad I did." A few years ago Capital's program was dropped. Kay had the good fortune of entering the school when it returned. "It started my freshman year so I got to wrestle all four years," said Kay. Kay slowly progressed to the state championship level. "I took a lot of lumps as a most freshman do," he said. "But I learned the best I could from them (teammates) and just tried to improve." After placing fifth in back-to-back years, Kay's arm was raised on the night of the 28th proclaiming him as one of 28 individual state titlists. "I can't think of a beter way (to go out), it feels good," he said. "Four years of hard work pays off." And allowed Josh Kay to become a part of history.
