Dragons Wrestle Past C-K

The Central Dragon wrestlers recorded their first win of the season on Dec. 27, defeating Claysburg 45-27. Central took advantage of six forfeits, as well as a decision and a fall.

After forfeit victories by Ben and Jacob Detwiler, Michael Fowkes (220) had a fall in just 37 seconds. Jaxon Matthews, Alex Bowman and Ian Couch then received forfeit wins before Brandon Holsinger (138) won a 13-9 decision. Logan Marko later received the final forfeit of the night.

Cooper Lingenfelter, Cade Keithley, Levi Brown and Kobe Harr earned falls for C-K. Teammate Hunter won by decision.

“It’s nice getting a win, but we would like to see more of our guys wrestling on the mat,” Central coach Dave Marko said. “Things pick up next week with matches against both Bellefonte (Thursday) and a tournament at Everett on Saturday.”
