With the state tournament just around the corner, St. Paul’s appears to be getting stronger.
The Wolves captured the St. Paul’s Wrestling Invitational behind their nine competitors who advanced to the finals of the 14 different weight classes. In all, they won five.
The Crusaders earned four titles, as Stephen Rumney was victorious over Thomas Jefferson’s Logan Griffin in the 106-pound final. Brother Martin's three other titles were won by David Drago (113-pound), Austin Schiro (120), and Dominic Casadaban (138). Schiro defeated Chris Meraux of St. Paul’s by virtue of a 9-3 decision. “(Meraux) definitely puts a lot of pressure on you, and he’s very strong,” Schiro said. “As the match went on, he was wearing me down a bit.”
