Claymont Champion Kammen Takes Silver in State Wrestling Tournament
The Claymont sophomore took home a silver medal a year after placing eighth at the OHSAA Division II state tournament.
This is a developing story. Check back later for updates. Claymont sophomore Kamden Stout took home his first state silver medal during his second OHSAA tournament appearance at The Schottenstein Center on Sunday, March 15.
Stout medically forfeited against St. Francis DeSales junior Joel Welch in the 165-pound championship bout in Division II. "I had a lot of support behind me, our community's very good," Stout said.
"I just came into the tournament and I felt a lot better since I moved up two weight classes. I had some good matches. " Stout qualified for the OHSAA tournament in 2025, but dropped his first round match before wrestling back through the consolation bracket and placing eighth at 150 pounds in Division II.
Moving up two weight classes might have been a struggle for some wrestlers. Not Stout. There was a bit of a learning curve, but he adapted with time and dominated the postseason.
