Morrison High School Wrestling Coach Tony Wright sent these Varsity Wrestling scores and results from December 5, 2014.
Coach Wright commented, “We opened our Conference season last night with two hard-fought victories. They were truly team efforts. The competitors and fans were really into the meets. It’s always good to beat Erie/Prophetstown, ranked #12 in the State. Hats of to Dylan Keller, by far the stand-out wrestler of the week! He starts the season 3-1 with a pin over returning State qualifier, Dominic Marchetti of Oregon, IL, ranked #8 in the State. Keller also pinned #10 ranked, Austin Wetsel of Princeton, IL, after coming back to tie a 10-3 deficit. His lone loss came at the hands of Josh Wheeler of Erie/Ptown, IL, in a wild back-and-forth match. Wheeler was a State alternate a year ago.”
“Many of the wrestlers stepped up for the team and moved up weight classes to strengthen the team,” Wright continued. “Anthony MacCartney picked up a pivotal pin against E/P moving up to 113 lbs, and newcomer Cody Southern bumped to 170 lbs to fill a gap for the Stangs. Likewise, Joe Eads, Cody Vanderlaan, and Thomas Ottens all bumped up classes to earn victories for the Mustangs [against] Princeton.”
The Mustangs will be in action again on Thursday, December 11, in the MHS Gymnasium, 643 Geneseo Avenue, Morrison, IL. They will take on #9 Lena-Winslow starting at 6:00 p.m.
