Wrestling 2016-01-26 vs Anacortes

Oak Harbor went from no opponent to half an opponent.

After Stanwood suddenly cancelled on the Wildcats, thanks to a wild mix of bad grades, injuries and athletic code violations, Anacortes stepped in to make sure OHHS would be able to still hold Senior Night Tuesday.

The Seahawks only filled seven of the 14 weight classes, and with five wins in the seven contested bouts, Oak Harbor sailed to a 62-12 win.

The victory lifted the 'Cats to 6-4 on the season, with a final Wesco match at Marysville-Getchell Thursday.

Of those who did wrestle, Sam Zook was the star on the night, winning 4-2 in overtime against Kiron Devine at 285 pounds.

Zook, who is undefeated this season, is ranked fourth in the state among 3A wrestlers, while Devine is ninth in class 2A.

Complete results:

(106) Justin Go lost by pin (0:43)
(113) William Nickelson won by decision 13-12
(120) Garrett Stahl won by pin (2:39)
(126) Blake McBride won by pin (2:47)
(132) Michael Lym won by decision 20-6
(138) Lucas Nickelson won by forfeit
(145) Corey Boler lost by pin (3:57)
(152) Joseph Field won by forfeit
(160) Eriq Boler won by forfeit
(170) Nick Dugan won by forfeit
(182) Joshua Margraf won by forfeit
(195) Colton Burdick-Curtis won by forfeit
(220) Isaiah Edmon won by forfeit
(285) Sam Zook won by decision 4-2

Before the match, the Wildcats honored seniors Stahl, Dymond Piper, Field, Martin Power, Amber Cramsey-Behnke and manager Mily Larsen.

Oak Harbor also received the Gary Knutzen Spirit of Wrestling Award for the second time in the last four years.

The award, given by the Skagit-Island Wrestling Officials Association, honors the Wildcats and coach Larry Falcon for an "outstanding display of sportsmanship throughout the season."

Knutzen was a longtime wresting official and head coach at Skagit Valley College.

This weekend marks the beginning of wrestling's post-season, with the boys sub-regional tournament on Friday and Saturday at Stanwood High School and the girls at Bellingham High School.
