Sycamore’s Akins, Culton, Davis finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd at state wrestling tourney

CHAMPAIGN – A Sycamore state wrestling champion, a runner-up and a third-place finisher shared a room at a Drury Inn this weekend.

In their arrangement before Saturday’s finals, 195-pounder Jake Davis enjoyed the pullout couch to himself while Kyle Akins (113) and Austin Culton (152) slept on opposite ends of a king size bed.

No word on whether Akins got more room to spread out after taking the Class 2A crown at the University of Illinois’ Assembly Hall. After defeating Montini senior Tommy Pawelski to cap a 40-1 campaign, the junior seemed agreeable to just about anything.
