The Jackets headed north for a tri-meet with Creekview and Pickens Co on Wednesday and walked away with 1 win and 1 loss. Creekview physically dominated almost every match, teaching us valuable lessons about how far strength, endurance, and mental toughness can take a wrestler. Sprayberry wins came from Darius Burton (195), Tyrik Woods (160 - Pin) and Jacob Speeth (145).
The second match against Pickens was a different story. Our guys matched up well with the Pickens wrestlers and fought hard for every point and every win. Not including several forfeits, wins came from Ian Taylor (126 - Major), Speeth (138), Ricky Dover (152 - Pin) Tyrik Woods (160 - Pin) Anthony Wessels (170 - Pin) and Freshman Austin Beyers (182 - Pin).
Man of the Match goes to Ian Taylor for his Major Decision over Pickens Co. Ian had great shot defense, and applied relentless pressure on top turning his opponent three times using three different moves. By working hard and refusing to give up, Ian found opportunities to score and put up big points against a tough opponent.
