Kaili Manuel's season was about as impressive as it gets, winning her second straight state title for Romeo. She went a perfect 37-0 on the season, with 23 pins and 11 tech falls. Manuel pinned her way through the state tournament, and she pinned or teched her way through the entire postseason. On the national scene, Manuel pinned her way through the Grappler Fall Classic, won a 16U National Championship in Fargo at 148lbs, and she won Super 32 at 160lbs. Manuel is ranked #1 in the country, and is more than deserving of our 2025 Michigan Grappler Wrestler of the Year.
