"It really feels great," the senior said after Bosco avenged a nine-point loss to the Green Knights just 10 days ago. "The whole team worked so hard for moments like these."

The score was 3-2 after two periods and Casey let Johnson up to start the third trailing, 4-2. Johnson then held off Casey’s repeated attempts at a tying takedown, clinching the bout and the match on a takedown with five seconds left.
