Harmony’s Nelson Toro, Rey Ortiz to Wrestle at Division-1 Level
Nelson Toro, who became the second state wrestling champion in Harmony High School history, and Rey Ortiz, who placed third in states at the highly competitive 138pound weight class, will both continue their careers at the Division-1 collegiate level after signing scholarship papers over the weekend.
Toro, which means Bull in Spanish, will literally become a Bull after signing during a Friday evening ceremony at St. Cloud’s Beef O’Brady’s Restaurant to join the University Buffalo Bulls wrestling program.

As a senior, Toro posted a 46-0 record – winning the Class 3A, 285-lb. state championship with a 7-4 win over Palmeto Ridge’s Austin Foye in the finals. The win capped an incredible undefeated season for Toro, who moved up from the 220-lb. weight class a year ago and was often giving up 30, 40 or even more pounds to his opponents.
He joins Sawyer Root as the only two Harmony wrestlers to win a state title. Root was a transfer student from Alaska, so Toro become the first Harmony state champion to have spent all four years of his high school career in the program.
“AbsolutelynodisrespecttoSawyerandhisgreataccomplishments,butNelsonis ourfirst‘home-grown’champion,” Harmony coach Vic Lorenzano says. “Itwasboth excitingandgratifyingtowatchhimgrowinourprogramandbecomebotha championandateamleader.”
