first time champions C-NS wrestlers win first sectional Dual Meet title by Phil Blackwell In years past, when the CiceroNorth Syracuse wrestling team played host to the Section III Dual Meet, it was mostly a spectator to the glory others had earned. Now, though, was a chance for the Northstars to take it all – which it did, achieving yet another program landmark when it defeated Fulton for the title last Thursday night in front of an appreciative home crowd. The Dual Meet originally had a seven-team field and was supposed to have its first two rounds Tuesday at Henninger, but icy weather postponed it – and then kept two of the teams, Indian River and Carthage, from traveling. Thus, C-NS, the top seed, warmed up with a 57-15 win over Syracuse and then faced the big test in the semifinals against Jamesville-DeWitt/CBA as Liverpool met Fulton in the other semifinal. To pull out the 33-23 win over the Rams, the Northstars had to trade blows until the final two bouts. At 102 pounds, Kevin Mossow gained a 6-2 decision over Dominic Shiano and Javone Dawkins, in the 110-pound finale, clinched it by pinning Carlos Barosso in the third period. Prior to that, Anthony Ciciarelli (110 pounds) and John Sherbourne (172 pounds) earned pins, with Sean Aldrich (138 pounds) and Kennedy Thomas (145 pounds) getting decisions and Kamdin Bembry, at 215 pounds, earning three key points in a 3-1 decision over Bryce Dadey. Meanwhile, Liverpool could not get past Fulton in the other semifinal, falling 55-18 as the lone Warriors’ points came from pins by Christian Coppin (132 pounds), Jayce Bliss (189 pounds) and Sajad Amirzada at 102 pounds. When it came to the final, C-NS
FIRST TIME CHAMPIONS: The Cicero-North Syracuse wrestling team won its first-ever Section III Dual Meet last Thursday, defeating Jamesville-DeWitt/CBA 33-23 in the semifinals and Fulton 34-19 in the finals. saw Fulton get the jump, only to have the Northstars take over in the higher weight classes and prevail 34-19 for the championship. Of the first four bouts, only Aldrich won, pinning Kallen Roberts in 99 seconds. Ayden Sprague (160 pounds) won 17-4 over Ethan Doran and Jonah Geller (152 pounds) held off Bailey Grubb 7-3. After a forfeit to Austin Hartman at 189 pounds, Bembry’s 60-second pin of Mason Wendt and Joe Kobuzowski (285 pounds) edging Micah Collins 4-3 clinched the title. The Northstars have earned a spot in this Saturday’s New York State Public High School Athletic Association Dual
Meet which will take place at SRC Arena and start at 9 a.m. Before all this, C-NS had won yet another tournament on Jan. 14 when it took the Phoenix Mid-Winter Classic with 199.5 points to edge the 195.5 total from runner-up Carthage. John Sherbourne won at 172, claiming a tight 7-5 title bout over Central Square’s Dante Coppola. Bembry was second at 215 after a 5-1 defeat to the Redhawks’ Rocky Files. Aldrich also was second, at 138, while three Northstars – Ciciarelli, Geller and Hartman – had third-place finishes, Hartman beating Khol Kalfass with a third-period pin in his consolation bracket final. Mossow was fourth
at 102, with Drew Baker fifth at 126 as Dawkins and Kozubowski (285) both got sixth-place finishes. In the simultaneous Cazenovia Invitational, Liverpool was third with 139.5 points behind South Jefferson/Sandy Creek (158) and Homer (148.5). Tyler Vivacqua (145), Connor Kral (152) and Dante Mallozzi (160) all reached the finals, and all lost, Kral getting closest in a 3-2 decision to Cortland’s Wyatt Tinker. Pierce Goodave (118) pinned teammate Carson Rice for third place, with Khai Anderson (110) and Lucas Smith (132) each earning fifth place as Anthony Kelly (160) and Chase Bandy (189) were sixth.
