Wrestling 2011-12-10 @ Snohomish

Saturday was a large tournament at Snohomish High School with over 30 Oak Harbor wrestlers attending. Unlike most tournaments that have distinct weight classes, this tournament arranged the wrestlers into 8-man/woman brackets with all 8 wrestlers in that bracket 'around' the same weight. This tournament is designed to get as much mat time as possible. Most tournaments are double-elimination with a guarantee of only two matches. The Snohomish tournament guarantees 3 matches.

Out of a total of 37 brackets, Wildcat wrestlers won 10, placed 2nd in two and 3rd in two.

Brackets winners were: Ben Pralle (H), Mark Johnston (I) (all pins), Nathaniel Stanfored (R), Sheyenne Sams (S), Keikai Tarrant (V), Josh Crebbin (W) (one pin and two tech falls), Jen Fremd (Y) (all pins), Josh Orritt (CC), Jeremy Alonzo (GG) and Ray Quinday (II) (all pins).

In second place were Jackson Constant (lost to Quinday in II bracket championship) and Kylene Ayer.

CJ Shavers was third in the X bracket and Cayden Cosper in U.

Also in the tournament were Black Pein-Neal, Alexia Mobley, Desiree Dillaman, Zaiha Sams, Ainsley McLoud, Noel Cheeseboro, Kody Cosper, Alex Rutter, Aimee Oliver, Olivia Hunt, Chris Carter, Ben Dugin, Kenny King, Nate Pacheco, Carl Meders, Austin Wotring, Tyler Adamson, Jacob Dugin and Austin Hwang.
