Dakota Halverson, a senior at Maricopa High School, is Arizona’s Division II Section IV champion.
Halverson won the top spot with his performance at the sectional meet at Campo Verde High School on Saturday. He is ranked second in the state in Division II’s 285-pound class. His record this season is 41-6.
He will wrestle at the Arizona State Tournament Friday and Saturday in Prescott Valley.
And he won’t be alone.

The state championships are at the Prescott Valley Event Center.
