In the second round, Berryman beat Clinton’s Seth Wisowaty 4-2, followed by a 7-1 win over Middleton’s Tyler Kersten.
Berryman forfeited his fourth match (no reason listed with results), followed by an 11-3 major decision loss to Sun Prairie’s Drew Scharenbrock, who ended the tournament at 30-0 this season.
