Sunday, March 3, 2013 THE DALLAS POST PAGE 8 WRESTLE Continued from Page 7 (182) and Dustin Jones (285) all won titles for the Black Knights. Harry defeated Blue Ridge’s Zach Edwards, 6-3, in a meeting of returning champions. He re- mained unbeaten with consecu- tive decisions after a 37-second pin in the quarterfinals. “Austin Harry had a very workmanlike tournament,” Williams said. Dragon, a sophomore, defeat- ed Brandon Hadden of Western Wayne, 8-3, in the final. He got there with two pins, including one in his first bout to fight off a potential upset by Nick O’Brien of Wyoming Area. “It was a pretty gutsy perfor- mance,” Williams said of the matchup between the top-seed- ed Dragon and O’Brien, who was much tougher than an eighth seed, but missed so much time this season that he did not ac- cumulate the points necessary for a higher seeding. “That was big for us. We didn’t want to lose him on Friday night. Butler dominated his weight class. After a pair of first-period pins, he shut out Elk Lake’s Isa- iah Ofalt for a 10-0 major deci- sion in the final. Jones fought his way to the title, knocking off second-seeded Justin Barber of Lackawanna Trail, 9-3, in the semifinals and top-seeded Elijah Greshman of GAR, 54, in a championship match that went to the ultimate tie-breaker format. “He had two tough matches,” Williams said. “He showed he has worked his way back into shape.” John Tomasura (113), Zeb McMillan (120), Josh Winters (145), Robert Wright (152) and Phil Hettes (195) each finished second by advancing to the fi- nals where they suffered their only loss of the tournament. Kody Pachamovitch fought his way back from an early loss with two straight pins and a one-point decision for third place and a re- gional berth at 220. Josh Sayre fell one step short by taking fourth at 138. In Class AAA, Dallas tied for fourth out of 15 teams at Hazle- ton Area. Dominic DeGraba, who won a title last year when Dallas was a Class AA team, took the 113-pound championship. Ryan Monk was second at 285, Connor Martinez third at 182 and Zach Macosky fourth at 152 to earn spots in this weekend’s Northeast Regional at Bethle- hem. Jim Caffrey was fifth at 126. Kris Roccograndi suffered an in- jury in the semifinals and could not return, leaving him sixth at 170. Steve Mingey was also sixth, at 145.
