In last year’s meeting with Conestoga, the Cougars caught fire and wrestled well, but came up short about 9 points. This year’s goal was to turn the table, and East used a steady performance to get it done! On Wednesday 12/13, the team travelled to old Tredyffrin to take on the Pioneers in a revenge match. The Cougars won 9 of 13 bouts and closed out the dual with a 37-21 win. Valen Piff (121), Declan McDowell (127), and Ricky Jewell (152) all scored technical falls to lead the effort. Felix Mason (215) secured a major decision, while Paxson Warnock (139), Stephen Elinski (145), Cade McDowell (172), and Tommie Grizzanti (189) all took minors. Adham Abouraya (285) claimed the meet’s lone forfeit. The team will need to increase their pursuit of bonus points in the future, but it was a solid win overall. In the JV dual, every wrestler got a match. East winners were Misha Page (107), Tommy Robson (133), Mike Brady (139), Karsten Hodge (145), Gunnar Savidge (172), Caleb Aikens (189), and Colin Kimble (215). Congrats to the Cougars and best of luck as we go deep into December!
