Clarion wrestlers have Salamanca tourney title within grasp By Tom Roof.The Times Herald SALAMANCA - Apparently a disappointing loss to Brookville in Thursday night's District 9 Class AA team dual tournament finals had little effect on the Clarion High School wrestling team. Either that or it made the Bobcats a little more hungrier going into Saturday's Salamanca Wrestling Tournament. Whatever the reason, Clarion put six wrestlers in the championship finals en route to winning the team title and knocking off two-time defending champion Fredonia. Led by PIAA state champion, undefeated Kyle Cathcart (25-0) at 189, Clarion tallied 192 points to wrestle the team title from a competitive 15-team field. Fredonia placed second with 183 points, while Olean High was third with 145 and Salamanca fourth with 132. In all, eight teams scored more than 100 points. "Clarion did a great job and brought a lot of quality to this tournament," said Salamanca coach Rich Morton. "I think having them here, having Bradford here, and Fredonia, those teams brought a lot of class with them ... and a lot of great wrestling." The host Warriors had three wrestlers in the finals, but only 152-pounder Vic Arena won, earning his third Salamanca title and the tourney's Outstanding Wrestler award by one vote over Cathcart with a 19-9 decision over Allegany-Limestone's Tony Margeson. Also for Salamanca, Justin Hager (103) and Corey O'Neil (112) placed second. Hager lost to Olean's Shea Anzivine, 7-3, after having beaten the Huskie eighth-grader in three previous meetings this year, including 10-4 in the Sweet Home Tournament, and 8-6 in the finals of the Olean tourney. "Those two kids are going to be seeing each other a lot," said Morton, "and they're both good kids. Their matches always seem to come down to who's the aggressor and who's doing more on his feet ... and this time Anzivine got himself a couple of big takedowns, and that was the difference." O'Neil, meanwhile, lost to top-seeded Mike Sanders (26-3), of Albion, 6-4, in overtime, continuing an impressive comeback from a dislocated elbow that was thought to have sidelined him for the season. "Corey did another fine job," said Morton. "He's getting back in condition and took one of the top-ranked kids in Western New York into sudden death." In addition to Anzivine, Steve Pancio won the 96-pound title for Olean, while A.J. Paoletto placed second at 160 to Pine Valley's top-seeded Kevin Herman (27-4). Paoletto's ride to the finals included a 16-8 decision over A-L's Brian Miller in the quarterfinals, and a tough 4-3 win over third-seeded Caleb Carnrite of Fredonia. Other Big 30 champions were Bolivar-Richburg's J.R. Tompkins (13-2) at 145, and Allegany-Limestone's Chris Troskosky at 275. Bradford High was presented with the first Ed Sweich team sportsmanship award.
