The JV and Varsity Wrestling Lions didn't need their passports last night to clash with Ryle and Connor. The evening started with the JV matches. Some of the highlights included a 15-0 win by Autumn Clark, a last second takedown by Aaron Pollard to secure a victory and James White with a dominating victory! The JV Lions finished with two strong team wins!
The Varsity Lions started the evening with an early lead over Ryle thanks to a flurry of moves by Ryan Zawacki to win by one point in the last seconds. The early lead disappeared quickly after several Ryle wins in a row. Cody Gabelman and JR Forsee also had victories against Ryle, final score displayed a Ryle win 53-15.
Next up was Connor and as usual the Lions wrestled very well after a loss. They punished Connor 63-6 losing only one weight class. Some of the highlights was a 19 seconds pin by Nathan Dixon, a first period pin by Austin Skaggs and Tyler Loyd, a strong finish by Kevin Reid and Brandon Mues to win close matches.
Next up is a weekend tournament @ Madeira. If you have not seen these Lions you need to get to Madeira this weekend to watch them challenge for a team title against 16 other teams including the #1 ranked team in the city, Reading. WE ARE NR!
