Class AAA

 

#2 Franklin Regional vs. #6 Cumberland Valley

 

106 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #6 William Kalades or Russell Zimmerman

Franklin Regional: Mark Prucnal

Edge: Cumberland Valley

If Kalades is here he would like to get bonus points but Prucnal may not allow it.

 

113 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: Russell Zimmerman or #6 William Kalades

Franklin Regional: #1 Devin Brown

Edge: Franklin Regional

Devin Brown will be expected to pick up bonus against Zimmerman and he should.

 

120 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #15 Wyatt Long

Franklin Regional: #1 Spencer Lee

Edge: Franklin Regional

Spencer Lee was a point away from a tech-fall against returning PIAA Class AA State Champion Jake Reigel a night before so I think he will want to get at least 5 here against Long.

 

126 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: Jake Barrick

Franklin Regional: #2 Gus Solomon

Edge: Franklin Regional

Solomon is coming off a win over #1 Luke Karam and will be expected to get bonus points here against Barrick.

 

132 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #16 Cal Reichart

Franklin Regional: Kyle Berk or Ryan Krause

Edge: Cumberland Valley

This is a weight Cumberland Valley could potentially get bonus points. If Kyle Berk goes for Franklin Regional he can keep it close and avoid giving up bonus.

 

138 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #7 Felix Belga

Franklin Regional: #14 Dom Giannangeli

Edge: Toss-Up

I call this a toss-up because of how close these two are in style. Belga is ranked higher but Giannangeli is a solid 138 lbs. wrestler who has wrestled tough competition. For Cumberland Valley this is a must win in order to keep it close with the Panthers.

 

145 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: Quintin Milliken

Franklin Regional: #1 Mike Kemerer

Edge: Franklin Regional

Cumberland Valley freshman Quintin Milliken is a scrappy and long wrestler but he will face Michael Kemerer who is hungry after getting a forfeit last night against BECA.

 

152 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #2 Patrick Duggan

Franklin Regional: #3 Josh Maruca

Edge: Cumberland Valley

Maruca had a tough loss last night to Mikey Labriola and Duggan has been on fire at 152 lbs. I expect Duggan to win a close one.

 

160 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: Jacob Schalles

Franklin Regional: #1 Josh Shields, Ryan Deloach, or Caleb Camacho

Edge: Franklin Regional

Schalles main objective is to stay off his back against the aggressive Shields. I think Sheilds will earn at least a major decision.

 

170 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #18 Trent Cook

Franklin Regional: Ryan Deloach or #1 Josh Shields

Edge: Cumberland Valley

If Sheilds is bumped up to 170 lbs. then he is clearly favored here and could pick up bonus points against Cook. If Deloach is here for Franklin Regional then Cook will be expected to pick up at least a major.

 

182 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: Dayne Ross

Franklin Regional: Max Kubas or Teddy Wohlin

Edge: Cumberland Valley

Ross can keep it close with just about anyone and I think he can get a win here for the Eagles.

 

195 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: #3 Francis Duggan or Brad Drabenstadt

Franklin Regional: Teddy Wohlin or Max Kubas

Edge: Cumberland Valley

Duggan wrestles like a light-weight in a upper weights body. Although only a freshman he will be expected to pick up bonus points here.

 

220 lbs.

Cumberland Valley: Brad Drabenstadt, Jake Black, or #3 Francis Duggan

Franklin Regional: Jake Pickup or Jeremy Nestor

Edge: Cumberland Valley

This is a swing match. Brad Drabenstadt proved that last night when he picked up a huge pin at 220 lbs. over #20 Mike Fine. Nestor keeps it close and so does Pickup.

 

285 lbs.

Bethlehem Catholic: #14 Jackson Stanford

Franklin Regional: Logan Miller or Jake Pickup

Edge: Cumberland Valley

It will likely be Stanford vs. Pickup here and Stanford will be expected to win and could help out immensely if he gets bonus points.

 

Class AA

 

#3 Boiling Springs vs. #5 Chestnut Ridge

 

106 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: #2 Aaron Burkett or Dylan Williams

Boiling Springs:  #9 Jalin Hankerson

Edge: Chestnut Ridge

Burkett is a very strong 106 lbs. who is favored against Hankerson. I don’t think this match will be anything more than a decision but Burkett could turn it up big time here. I could see Ridge putting out Williams and bumping Burkett up to 113 lbs. to get bonus.

 

113 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge:  Dylan Williams or #2 Aaron Burkett

Boiling Springs:  Caleb Holly

Edge: Toss-Up

If Burkett is bumped here it will be to get bonus points agains Holly. If it is Williams vs. Holly I call it a toss-up match.

 

120 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: #13 Justin McCoy or Luke Hobson

Boiling Springs:  Lucas Shoop or Zach Martin

Edge: Chestnut Ridge

Freshman Justin McCoy needs a win here for Chestnut Ridge – most likely against Lucas Shoop.

 

126 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: Luke Hobson or #13 Justin McCoy

Boiling Springs:  #6 Grant Bond or Zach Martin

Edge: Boiling Springs

I think we see Hobson vs. Bond here. Boiling Springs will want to pick up bonus points here with Bond and they should.

 

132 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: Morgan Deremer

Boiling Springs: #1 Korbin Myers or #6 Grant Bond

Edge: Boiling Springs

#1 Korbin Myers will want to pick up bonus points here against Deremer and he should.

 

138 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: #12 Derrick Claar or Levi Hobson

Boiling Springs: #1 Korbin Myers or #1 Kyle Shoop

Edge: Boiling Springs

#1 Kyle Shoop is a machine and is favored over Claar. Shoop may even be able to pick up bonus here. If Hobson is here his job will be to stay off his back.

 

145 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: Levi Hobson or #12 Derrick Claar

Boiling Springs: AJ Kostyak or #1 Kyle Shoop

Edge: Boiling Springs

Unless Chestnut Ridge bumps up Claar and puts Hobson down at 138 lbs. I think AJ Kostyak is favored here. If Claar goes out he will be favored but may not pick up bonus against Kostyak.

 

152 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: #4 Trent Crouse

Boiling Springs: #12 Tyler Kauffman or AJ Kostyak

Edge: Chestnut Ridge

Tyler Kauffman is coming back into form but will have a tough match with #4 Trent Crouse. I think Crouse is favored against Kauffman but it will be close.

 

160 lbs.

Chesnut Ridge: #25 Colby Hillegass or Josh McGill

Boiling Springs: #9 Jon Vaughn, #16 Travis Wickard, or #12 Tyler Kauffman

Edge: Boiling Springs

I think Wickard goes out here and gets a win for the Bubblers regardless of his opponent.

 

170 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: #25 Colby Hillegass or Josh McGill

Boiling Springs: #9 Jon Vaughn, #16 Travis Wickard

Edge: Boiling Springs

Again like 160 lbs. I think Boiling Springs gets the victory here and if Vaughn is on McGill I see bonus points coming.

 

182 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: Brandon Beaver

Boiling Springs: Austin Tayler

Edge: Boing Springs

Austin Taylor is slightly favored here but I think it will be close with Beaver.

 

195 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: #5 Connor Buttry

Boiling Springs: Nathan Gouhin or Zachary Rowe

Edge: Chestnut Ridge

Buttry will have to pick up bonus points here to keep Ridge in the dual meet.

 

220 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: Jonathon Heming

Boiling Springs: Ricky Ott, Nathan Gouhin, or Zachary Rowe

Edge: Toss-Up

If Ricky Ott goes here he is favored against Heming but it would be a toss-up between Heming and Gouhlin or Rowe.

 

285 lbs.

Chestnut Ridge: Shane Davis or Joel Evans

Boiling Springs: Ricky Ott, Nathan Gouhlin, or Zach Rowe

Edge: Toss-Up

I think Ott wrestles here for the Bubblers but Shane Davis has done well this week.
