Brendan Johnston, an 18-year-old wrestler from Colorado, willingly gave up the chance of placing in the state tournament because the fight he was to participate in was against his fate and beliefs.
Namely, Brendan was schedule to wrestle Angel Rios at the Pepsi Center in Denver for third-place in the 106-pound weight class in the consolation bracket, but the moment he realized his opponent was a girl, he decided to forfeit.
This decision cost him a higher place than the sixth he ended up in.
A few days before this match, Brendan did the same when he was to face Jaslynn Gallegos, a senior at Skyview High in the first round of the tournament on Thursday, as per KDVR.
