East sectional
-
- HUGHESVILLE &emdash; Steve Anceravage moved atop District 4's
all-time wins list, teammate Jeff Schell joined him in the 150-win
club and Bloomsburg crowned six champions to win the East
Sectional Tournament on Saturday.
-
- Schell won his fourth sectional title to join another elite
club, and Anceravage won his third. Drew DiPasquale won his third
sectional title in as many tries; Zach Schnee won his second; and
Joey Anceravage and Chris Krum each won their first titles for the
Panthers.
-
- Warrior Run followed Bloomsburg in the team standings and
crowned three first-time champions in seniors Nate Diehl, Drew
Pulsifer and Mark Oberdorf.
-
- Central Columbia crowned a pair of freshman champions: Mike
Powlus and Nate Johnson.
-
- State dual-meet champion Bloomsburg advanced 11 wrestlers to
the District 4 Tournament while Warrior Run advanced eight,
Central six, Benton three and Columbia-Montour Vo-Tech one.
-
- "Our goal is to advance every week. If you don't take first,
you take second or third and keep going," Bloomsburg coach Marc
Freeman said.
-
- Steve Anceravage moved past Danville legend Jim Martin into
first place on the career wins list in District 4 with a win by
fall in the 152-pound final. It was his 157th career victory,
eclipsing the 156 that Martin, a three-time PIAA champion, had in
his career in the early 80s.
-
- "District 4 has always been known for some of the top
wrestlers to come out of the state, and just to be mentioned with
some of those guys is an honor," Steve Anceravage said. "To
actually have the all-time wins lead is something I'm really proud
of and it's something I looked forward to (Saturday)."
-
- Schell capped an unbeaten career in the sectional tournament
with a win by fall in the 119-pound final. He became just the 17th
wrestler in state history with 150 career wins and, by joining
Anceravage in the club, gave the Panthers the first-ever pair of
teammates to eclipse the mark.
-
- "It's a pretty amazing to reach 150 wins," Freeman said. "And
four sectional titles ... you have to think of some of the names
that came out of this sectional &emdash; it is an accomplishment
to win this tournament. You look at some of kids on our team that
are not four-time champs and it kind of puts it in perspective."
-
- DiPasquale won a sectional title as a freshman, but sat out
the postseason his sophomore year. He returned last year to claim
another title and finished off a perfect run through three years
of sectional tournaments with a win by fall at 145 pounds.
-
- Schnee won his second straight sectional title by winning by
technical fall at 135 pounds.
-
- The titles from Joey Anceravage (112) and Krum (215) helped
Bloomsburg tie the sectional record with six champions. The
Panthers also had six champions last year.
-
- "We had nine kids in the finals and we were hoping to have
nine champs," Steve Anceravage said. "We've tied the sectional
record twice now; we just didn't quite get the last one in there."
-
- Diehl won his first sectional title with a fall in the second
period at 189 pounds. Pulsifer scored four points late in a 6-1
decision at 160 pounds, and Oberdorf fought from 7-1 down in the
third to win by fall at 275 pounds.
-
- "They pulled through. I'm really pleased with the way they
wrestled," Warrior Run coach Wayne Smythe said. "Eight are going
on and that's a good thing. It's not easy to get eight out of a
tournament like this where you have the Pennsylvania state
championship team in it."
-
- Central had five tops seeds and all advanced to the finals,
but only Powlus and Johnson managed to win championship bouts.
-
- "I didn't expect it, but it's a nice thing to have two
freshmen win it," Johnson said. "It's been my goal since the first
match of the season &emdash; I wanted to win this. My brother
(Jeremiah) won it as a freshman and I wanted to match that.
-
- "And as a team this may be the most we've ever advanced to
districts. I think the most before was five, and we have six
going."
-
- Bloomsburg's other place-winners were Fred Schrader (third at
103), Ricky Donald (second at 130), Tom Coombe (second at 140),
Matt Archey (third at 189) and Steve Brown (second at 275).
-
- Also advancing for Warrior Run was Jason Guffey (second at

- Southern Section
-
- COAL TWP. &emdash; A sectional tournament is a qualifier
tournament and that's how Danville treated the District 4 Class AA
Southern Section on Saturday at Shamokin H.S.
-
- The Ironmen, with a pair of champions, qualified eight
wrestlers for the District 4 tournament at Williamsport High but
couldn't catch Mifflinburg for the team title.
-
- Mifflinburg, the District 4 team tournament runner-up, stormed
through to the team championship with 198 points. The Wildcats
entered 11 wrestlers and qualified all for the district
tournament.
-
- The Wildcats had four champions of seven finalists. Danville
was second with 162.5 points and will send eight to Williamsport.
Lewisburg finished third with 122 points, edging Shamokin which
had 118.
-
- Danville got titles from 130-pounder Erik Smith and
135-pounder Jason Craig. Previously unbeaten Brandon Earlston was
pinned by state place-winner Christian Snook of Middleburg in
their final at 140 pounds.
-
- The other Danville finalist, Joel Hummer, lost at 215 pounds.
-
- "We didn't come here with the idea of winning the title,"
Smith said. "We just wanted to get as many people through as we
could."
-
- Smith, now 33-2, dominated in his 7-0 win over Shamokin's
Andrew Derr. After a scoreless first period, Smith took the
defensive position and reversed Derr and then scored three back
points. He tacked on a reversal in the third for the final margin.
-
- Smith said he was a little hesitant to go under Derr. "I heard
he was good on top. But I feel pretty comfortable anywhere. That's
because of my experience."
-
- Earlston, who came into the match 34-0, fell behind 4-0 after
Snook took him to his back in the first period. Each picked up two
points in the second, Earlston on two escapes and Snook on a
takedown. In the third, Snook escaped and took Earlston to his
back for the fall.
-
- Craig made a first-period takedown stand up against
Mifflinburg's Scott Stahl in a 2-1 win. Craig got the takedown in
the first and rode out the period. Stahl rode Craig in the second.
Stahl got an escape with 1 minute, 17 seconds left but could not
convert two deep third-period takedown attempts.
-
- Danville coach Ron Kanaskie agreed with Smith on the Ironmen's
weekend goals.
-
- "We were focusing ourselves on getting as many as we could out
of here," he said. "We got eight and I'm very happy with that. Our
kids wrestled with a good level of intensity. This is a tough
tournament."
-
- Shamokin went 1-for-5 in the finals with 189-pounder Kerry
Kramer the lone winner. He beat Lewisburg's Sean Griffith.
-
- Mount Carmel's lone winner was junior Eric Lapotsky, now 28-0,
after tech-falling West Snyder's Dustin Trego 19-2 in the finals.
-
- Southern Columbia freshman Josh Marks took the title at 275,
topping Middleburg's Greg Gaugler 1-0 in the finals.
-
- In addition to its finalists, Danville will send four other
wrestlers, all third-placer finishers. They are Darrell Alexander
(112 pounds), Kyle Stump (119), Mike Hunter (145) and Adam Siats
(152).
-
- Shamokin 145-pounder Matt Kline was a the center of the most
controversial match of the night.
-
- Kline led Mifflinburg's Frank Peachey 5-0 in the finals but
Peachey reversed and scored two near-fall points. Kline had an
illegal hold on Peachey in the flurry and the Mifflinburg wrestler
was awarded a penalty point and because the infraction occurred in
a pinning combination, Peachey was awarded another point to go
ahead 6-5. Eventually, Peachey pinned Derr in 5:19.
-
- Two top seeds in the tourney, Danville's Kyle Alexander at 160
and Shamokin's Joe Wisgo at 215 did not advance to districts.
-
- Alexander was pinned in a first-round match and later lost.
Wisgo, a defending sectional champion, fell 11-9 to Hummer and
then lost to Mount Carmel's Chris Yucha in the consolation finals.
-
- The top three in each weight class advance to the district
tournament next Friday and Saturday.
