Torinese capped off his terrific high school wrestling career with his second SCISA state title, winning the 132-pound championship. He also won a 113-pound title as a freshman and finished runner-up at 132 last season.
The Golden Warriors finished fifth in the team standings with a total of five placers, as senior Kohl Woodham finished runner-up at 182, Daniel Snyder (120) and Jack Brock (152) placed third, and Jude Witkowski was fourth at 113.
