May wins Metro Spotlight Award

Cedar Rapids Jefferson junior Kelly May is the winner of the Metro Spotlight Award for high school boys this week, the Metro Sports Report announced Sunday.

May is a prominent member of the Jefferson wrestling team, which is ranked No.9 in Class 3A. The J-Hawks are undefeated in dual meets and will participate in the regional dual meet tournament next month.

May is ranked No.6 at 152 pounds by The Predicament. He collected a pin when Jefferson upset No.5 Linn-Mar, he had a big decision when the J-Hawks upset No.8 Iowa City West and he had a pin in 39 seconds last week when the J-Hawks beat Kennedy.

May won the 152-pound at the J-Hawk Invitational Jan. 18, the first time Jefferson had won its own tournament in 21 years.
