UPDATED Thursday night recap 1/19/12

I was able to track down all of the results on what was a fairly heavy schedule considering many of the local schools will be participating in the Richland Coaches Duals the next two days. 

Richland 42, Central Cambria 28

170-Nico Pecora, R, dec. Cody Slebodnick, 5-0.
182-Mike Merriman, R, pinned Calvin Crow, 1:30.
195-Killian Snopko, R, dec. Brody Snyder, 7-2.
220-John Rizzo, R, pinned Luke Zearing, 1:59.
285-Matt Moose, R, pinned Evan Sikora, 4:55.
106-Adam George, R, forfeit.
113-Brad Taylor, CC, maj. dec. Steven Rouser, 10-2.
120-Cameron Long, CC, dec. Justin Cinko, 16-12.
126-Marcus McKool, R, pinned Coltin Makin, 2:24.
132-Ben Rager, CC, dec. Nick Naglic, 7-3.
138-Cordale Kline, CC, pinned John Li, 2:52.
145-Dan Devan, R, forfeit.
152-Tanner Bilonick, CC, pinned Mario Rizzo, 4:48.
160-Tony Risaliti, CC, forfeit.
Records: Richland 4-4. Central Cambria 4-11.

Analysis: Not too many surprises here. The biggest might be how close Nick Naglic kept his match with Ben Rager at 132 pounds. That's not meant as a knock on Naglic - he's having a good season while wrestling some top-notch competition - but Greater Johnstown's Malcolm Harris was the only wrestler to go six minutes with Rager until Thursday night.
Matt Moose's pin of Evan Sikora at 285 was a good win for the Richland heavyweight. Sikora is 11-8 and was coming of a 13-second pin of Penn Cambria's Seth McLendon, who made it into the Pennsylvania Wrestling Rankings at No. 20 this week.

Conemaugh Township 46, Forest Hills 26

220-Luke Gindlesperger, CT, pinned Sam Michuk, :59.
285-Nick Holsopple, CT, pinned Matt Marra, 1:36.
106-Triston Law, FH, pined Ryan Smolk, :50.
113-Kody Ofsanko, CT, forfeit.
120-Mickey Sanders, CT, maj. dec. Jake Keiper, 15-4.
126-Casey Berchick, CT, pinned Aiden Sugars, 4:36.
132-Kenny Corle, FH, forfeit.
138-Taylor Cahill, CT, pinned Ean Bopp, 1:14.
145-R.J. Brydon, FH, dec. Tanner Cahill, 9-3.
152-Cory Berchick, CT, pinned Kevin Kabo, :27.
160-Cody Law, FH, pinned Ryan Schifflett, 3:20.
170-Jusdan Griffith, CT, dec. Warren Gramling, 7-2.
182-Andrew Gowarty, CT, dec. Jeff Leach, 7-3.
195-Zach Pinkas, FH, tech. fall Zch Svencer, 19-2 (4:00).
Records: Conemaugh Township 6-1. Forest Hills 1-8.

Analysis: No big surprises here, but the 145-pound match alone was probably worth the price of admission. I saw these two go at it earlier in the season at the Sheetz Holiday Classic. Tanner Cahill hit a five-point move early in that one, but R.J. Brydon came back for a 9-6 victory. Sounds like this one might have been a bit easier. Brydon is now 19-0 on the season while Cahill is 13-3.

Westmont Hilltop 60, United 12

106-Drake Dorian, FH, forfeit.
113-Logan Blackburn, WH, dec. Seth Knapic, 4-1.
120-Stephen Zipf, WH, dec. Warren Lowther, 9-5.
126-Nick Mical, WH, dec. Scott Marsh, 13-7.
132-Mike Walsh, WH, pinned Gaige George, 2:54.
138-Andrew Garrison, WH, pinned Troy Matson, :38.
145-Ian Helsel, WH, dec. Tyler Mack, 11-9.
152-Tanner Patton, WH, forfeit.
160-Miles Stahl, U, pinned Colin Barron, 4:59.
170-John Blankenship, U, pinned Jonah Cramer, 1:42.
182-Ryan Burnheimer, WH, pinned Chuck Hropovich, 2:58.
195-Eric Kowalewski, WH, pinned Tyler Oliver, 2:38.
220-Don Shovestull, WH, pinned Ryan Snyder, :17.
285-Josh Duplin, WH, pinned Joshua Bealonis, :27.
Record: Westmont Hilltop 6-2.

Analysis: The match of the night looks like it would have been Ian Helsel's 11-9 victory over Tyler Mack at 145 pounds. They're both solid wrestlers and were able to put up some points in what I'm guessing was an entertaining match for the fans. The only other result that caught my attention was Logan Blackburn's 4-1 victory over Seth Knapic at 113 pounds. That's a little closer than I would have guessed.

North Star 52, Portage 18

106-Colton Gennett, NS, forfeit
113-Lenny Beeman, NS, forfeit
120-Nick Roberts, NS, forfeit
126-Tayte Mostoller, NS, major dec. Nick Lutz, 12-0
132-Chase Fox, P, dec. Tevin Mostoller, 7-4
138-Luke Lepley, NS, dec. Shane Baker, 2-0
145-Caleb Kephart, P, pinned Austin Connor, :10
152-Tanner Revak, NS, pinned Paul Husar, 3:00
160-Donnie Watters, P, dec. Lance Shawley, 7-4
170-Randy Wisen, P, pinned Neil Yoder, 2:37
182-Thomas Miller, NS, forfeit
195-Max Strasiser, NS, pinned Cameron Neel, :58
220-Brett Benedict, NS, dec. Tyler Strong, 7-2
285-Shane Supanick, NS, forfeit

Analysis: For giving up five forfeits, Portage actually performed pretty well. Chase Fox delivered a very good win over Tevin Mostoller at 132 pounds. Caleb Kephart's 10-second pin of Austin Connor was a stunner, in terms of the result and how fast it was.

220: Albright, Dan (Chestnut Ridge HS) FALL Claycomb, Eli(EVERETT AREA HS) 140

285: Buttry, Austin (Chestnut Ridge HS) For (EVERETT AREA HS) -

Analysis: Not too much insight here, as I haven't seen Everett and rarely see their results. I know that Chris Eichelberger has been wrestling really well, and he won. Isiah Gibbons is one of the other names that I know and he won as well. The only real surprise to me was Ben Sterling's 17-second pin of Matt Dull, who came into the night with a 9-1 record. Sterling improved to 9-5 with the victory.

No results
