Highlights….
The MW/NFA dual lived up to the hype with the Crusaders coming out on top this year by a score of 40-27! MW jumped out to a 18-0 lead but NFA clawed their way back into the dual 18-15 after 8 matches. Next at 106 we saw a great match between two of Section 9’s best lightweights end with a 3-1 decision for Brown over Merli! NFA’s Jaden Hansen then gets the quick wbf to tie it after 10 matches 21-21! MW would then run off wins in 4 of the final matches to bring us to a MW 40-27 win! In other spotlight match-up we had D2 power Port Jervis beating Pine Bush 55-24 where we saw Askey beat Tigue 10-5 and Ortiz defeat Tufano! Washingtonville and VC had a barn burner with the Wizards eventually coming out on top 41-40! Phillips over Poppe by fall was a key match-up keeping this one close!
