I've been trying to look up how many state champs beat returning state champs. (Haven't dug too deep, I'm lazy).
Wondering boys and girls who's beat state champ to be a state champ. How's many times has this happened? How many have repeated as a state champ beating a state champ.
Yes I have my own personal interest in this as my daughter is a 2 time state champ beating a returning state champ each time. How many are in the same boat?
Niko Villareal Beat Alex Cisneros is a big one, also Trence Gillem beating Durblin Lloren was pretty surpising in 2016, Christian Pagdilao over Anthony Valencia in 2014, Cortez beating Quintero this past season. Those are the fairly recent ones I can think of off the top off my head without thinking to hard.
In 1989 at 105 lbs. Jimmy Aguirre of Clovis defeated defending Champion Robbie Sordi of Madera for his 1st CIF title ...in 1990 Aguirre defeated Tyrell of Oak Grove at119 for his 2nd title and in 1991 at 125 lbs. he defeated Detran Gant of Roosevelt for his 3rd State title ... Gant was the defending 112 LB. Champion...
Seeing no one has commented I started to look at which state champs beat a returning state champ. I thought Jesse Vasquez did but looks like I'm wrong.
