Monday night recap 1-14-2013

Not much to recap from Monday night. I only know of two matches, one of which (Ligonier Valley-United) was a makeup and not on my original schedule.

Ligonier Valley 37, United 30

106–Gordon Matson, LV, forfeit.

113–No match.

120–Justin Patrick, LV, forfeit.

126–Max Caldwell, LV, pinned Warren Lowther, 2:47.

132–Daniel Croyle, LV, pinned Devon Walker, 3:59.

138–Grant Ingalls, U, pinned Nickolas Stahl, 4:53.

145–Derek Croyle, LV, pinned Tyler Mack, 2:50.

152–Tyler Smith, LV, maj. dec. Brent Mack, 16-5.

160–Anthony Michaels, U, pinned Oliver Hall, 1:43.

170–Miles Stahl, U, forfeit.

182–Charles Hropovich, U, dec. Dominick Shawley, 26-21.

195–Tyler Oliver, U, forfeit.

220–Raymond Marsh, LV, dec. Andrew Deitman, 12-10.

285–Benjamin Mountan, U, dec. Kyler Kruel, 1-0.

Records: Ligonier Valley 2-2; United 3-8.

Analysis: The dual was a little closer than I would have guessed. Ligonier Valley was again without Josh Patrick (leg strain) but did just fine in the lower weights, outscoring United 24-0 through 132. I'm not sure you can say a 26-21 match is a good one, but the 182-pound bout between Charles Hropovich and Dominick Shawley certainly had to be an entertaining one. That's the highest-scoring match I've seen all season. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever seen that kind of point total in a regular decision.

Central Cambria 41, Richland 21

132–Steve Pennington, CC, forfeit.

138–Nick Naglic, R, pinned Kevin Bednar, 5:11.

145–Gabe Seymour, CC, pinned Marcus McKool, 1:52.

152-Tyler Karlinsey, CC, dec. Hunter Cober, 6-3.

160–Cordale Kline, CC, dec. Trevor Henry, 8-3.

170-Nico Pecora, R, pinned Devin Bowser, 1:03.

182-Josh Haymaker, R, dec. Calvin Crow, 3-1.

195–Tom Howe, CC, forfeit.

220-Jordan O’Farrell, CC, forfeit.

285–Matt Moose, R, pinned John Branick, 1:05.

106–No match.

113–Ian Ostrowsky, CC, dec. Tyler Bodenschatz, 7-5.

120–Tom Opdenhoff, CC, tech fall Adam George, 16-0 (4:20).

126-Brad Taylor, CC, dec. Stephen Rowser 6-4. 

Records: Central Cambria 5-9; Richland 1-5.

Analysis: It's been a rough go for a Richland team decimated by injuries, and Monday night was no different. The best matchup was at 113 pounds, where Ian Ostrowsky (13-5) dec. Tyler Bodenschatz (11-6) 7-5. Ostrowsky is just part of a nice group of lightweights for Central Cambria. That includes another freshman in Tom Opdenhoff, who is 17-3 and junior Brad Taylor, who is better than his 7-9 record indicates.
