LARNED —No. 2 ranked Class 3A Hoisington cruised to five dual-match wins and nine Cardinals finished with perfect records at the Larned dual meet Thursday.
Hoisington’s No. 1 ranked Jonathan Ball (145), No. 5 ranked Landen Urban (285) and Tanner Cassity (132) led the way with four pins apiece. Also finishing unbeaten in their matches were No. 1 ranked Christopher Ball (152), Sean Urban (160), Wyatt Pedigo (170), Jake Curtis (182) and No. 5 ranked Justin Bradley (220).
Hoisington defeated the Great Bend junior varsity 39-37, Sublette 72-6, Stafford 72-12, Hays-Thomas More Prep 63-15 and Larned 57-22.
Larned won four matches, beating Great Bend 47-29, TMP 45-21, Sublette 57-18 and Stafford 60-12.
Larned’s Braydon Lemuz (113) and Kristopher Nolde (120) finished with 5-0 records. Nolde moved up to 126 for a pin in 4:15 over Sublette’s Bradon Menzie. Jeremiah Slattery (220/285) pinned four foes, but lost 5-2 to Hoisington’s Justin Bradley in a 220-pound match.
Also finishing with 4-1 records were Hunter Fitzpatrick (126), Josh Dooley (132), Wes Koch (152), Caleb East (170) and Keaton Thompson (220).
Great Bend’s Natalie Garcia (106) and Alex Randolph (132) finished with 5-0 records. Junior Garcia (138) finished with a 4-1 record. The Panthers beat Sublette 37-36 and Stafford 49-12 and lost to TMP 34-33 as two matches were decided on tiebreakers.
“I was very happy with how our junior varsity wrestlers competed with the varsity teams at Larned,” said Great Bend coach Nathan Broeckelman. “Some of our young guys were able to test themselves with some varsity action and earn themselves a varsity letter this week.”
The Panther junior varsity will travel to Hays next weekend.
