Daniel Herrera is a two-time state champ! The junior heavyweight has never lost a high school wrestling match. What a monster! @PDHS_Athletics @pdhsofficial @pdhsalumni @PalmWrestling @KESQ @BaileyKESQ @mantanona98 @MantanonaBeau @TroyMantanona1 pic.twitter.com/3VyMGciyNq
Mantanona gets his revenge as he lost last year in the championship match on a controversial call.
The embrace with Dad (head coach) and brother @TroyMantanona1 says it all. @MantanonaBeau worked his entire life for this moment. Was robbed of it last year and finally got his redemption this year. Kid is a stud. pic.twitter.com/cU5P5cAYd7

Herrera, on the other hand, has never lost a match in his high school career. Remarkable.
The Aztecs took 6th place out of 235 teams.
Here are the rest of the Aztecs who placed in Bakersfield.
