Great job Paulie, you've had a great season and left no doubt who the best in the state at 119. Everyone is proud of you.

Hansen wins third straight

Paulie Hansen’s biggest fans were lined up after he won his third straight 5A championship on Saturday.

Hansen, a 119-pound Turner senior, first got a hug from his little sister Jenna.

After they finished, it was Hansen’s turn to be picked up, as his cousin, Mike Steinmetz, his friend M.J. Bland and his dad all embraced him.

The win completed a perfect 37-0 season for Hansen, who has only lost one match the last three years.

“I couldn’t have dreamt this season going any better,” Hansen said. “This one is better than the other two because it’s my last year.”
