Did Jacob Murton get injured in the Eastern qualifier?  I see he is not on the bracket at nationals, and it looks like he had a medical default in the consolation semis of the qualifier, but won his 5th place match.  Anyone know what happened?

I was told by someone on CU's team that Murton had a back/neck injury and that he is done wrestling indefinitely.  I realize that with injuries, sometimes a person can work their way back, and perhaps Murton will return.  I'm just writing what I was told.  He is an incredible wrestler, and I found him to be a very nice, helpful instructor for my wrestlers.  I wish Jacob the best.

You might be thinking of the older Murton, Jairus.  I know he had a pretty bad injury but he came back and competed some this year..  However Jacob might have gotten injured as well, I don't know.
