Section 9 D2 Championships

Youth Prevails at the Small School Tournament; Ross Family Makes Section 9 History

The Ross family from Onteora had quite a successful day at the office!  For the first time in Section 9 history, four brothers have been crowned Section 9 champions in the same tournament.  Pat (106), Nick (113), Nate (126), and Dillon (152) all won titles on a day that saw nine underclassmen crowned champion! Pat and Nick are 8th grade twins. Nate is a freshman and Dillon is a junior…yes, that means they are all coming back next year!  Onteora had a 5th champion as Zach Chartrand took home the title at 145 – he’s only a junior and is also coming back next year! Chartrand was voted MOW of the tournament.

Red Hook’s depth proved to be too much as they came away with the team title followed by Onteora.  Eldred/Liberty/Sullivan West, New Paltz, and Rondout Valley rounded out the top 5 teams.  Take a look at the finals results and click on the link below for complete brackets.

Section 9 D2 Tournament Preview

The Section 9 Division 2 Tournament takes place on Sunday 2/12 at SUNY Ulster.  Wrestling will begin at around noon with the finals slated to begin at approximately 5:00 pm.  Division 2 wrestling in Section 9 is getting better every year and this year’s tournament will be no exception.  Let’s take a look at some of the possible marquee match-ups for Sunday!

99 Pounds
With his 21-7 record, Rondout Valley’s Nikko Walsh has emerged as the favorite but we can expect for him to be tested by whoever wins between Red Hook’s Matt Morris and New Paltz’s Aiden Cuppett.

106 Pounds
This will probably be the most exciting weight to follow!  Red Hook senior Wade Harris has made several trips to Albany however this year he is going to receive a serious challange from Onteora 8th grader Pat Ross who has split matches with Harris this year.  We also need to keep an eye on Marlboro’s John Antonelli who has posted several impressive wins this season!

113 Pounds
At 23-1 Chester sophomore Liam Bullock is the clear favorite but he definitely cannot look past Onteora 8th grader Nick Ross who has posted 25 victories this year!

120 Pounds
Chester senior Nick Conetta is 24-1 this season and is the heavy favorite here.  Conetta’s only loss was a 3-2 decision to a wrestler from Section 2 and he has a victory over the 3rd seeded D1 wrestler at 120, Patrick Owens from Monticello

126 Pounds
This will be another great weight to watch with at least 3 wrestlers with a legitimate chance to punch their ticket to Albany in Nate Ross (Onteora), Chris Massaro (New Paltz), and Nick Curreri (E/L/SW).

132 Pounds
Rondout Valley junior Ian Ross is the clear favorite at 132 and is hoping to find his way to the medal stand in Albany in two weeks!

138 Pounds
We can expect to see Round 3 between New Paltz senior Shane Gullicksen and Highland sophomore Mat Malherio.  Malherio won the first match 6-5 and Gullicksen avenged the loss a few weeks ago by defeating Malherio 3-2 in UTB!

145 Pounds
This is a pretty open weight with Hayden Baker from Rondout Valley and Zach Chartrand being two of the favorites, however Burke’s Connor Post has a 10-1 record this year and is definitely worth keeping an eye on!

152 Pounds
If Dillon Ross from Onteora and Tristen Schiafo from Red Hook both stay at this weight – watch out!  This will be another battle between two wrestlers who both have the potential to place at the state tournament in Albany!  The two have met three times this year with Ross winning twice.  The scores of the three matches have been 3-2, 4-3 (OT), and 3-2 (UTB)…yeah they’re pretty evenly matched!

160 Pounds
This is another weight where a Section 9 wrestler has his sights set higher than on just winning a Section 9 title! E/L/SW senior Noah Curreri placed 5th in NYS last year and is going to be one of the favorites to make it to the finals in Albany this year! He has a 30-2 record and his only two losses came at the Eastern States Classic!

170 Pounds
This is a wide open weight with several wrestlers having a chance to win the title.  Let’s keep an eye on Matt Shields from Onteora and Larry Oliver from Highland – both are having solid years.  This is a weight where we may be surprised by a late entry who has moved here from a different weight class.

182 Pounds
New Paltz senior Ben Cuppett is a 2X Section 9 champ but he was recently majored by Brody Harris from Chester.  Jeff Kiluba from Red Hook is also seeded here for now!  If all three wrestlers decide to stay at this weight, 182 will be a blast to watch!

195 Pounds
This is another weight where we have several wrestlers to watch for and an 11th hour weight change is definitely possible.  Two of the favorites here are John Goodell from E/L/SW and Austin Eighmey from Ellenville.

220 Pounds
Same as 195 – we have a few peple to what for and we should expect a last minute weight change into this weight.  I’m predicting we’ll see Goodell from E/L/SW here!

285 Pounds
We have pretty good depth at heaveyweight in the D2 tournament this year!  Let’s keep an eye on Angel Lemus (Onteora), Colin Canfield (Highland), and Will Sutherland (Rondout Valley) as three wrestlers with a legit shot of taking the title!

 

Revised Schedule for Section 9 D1 Tournament

As most of you know by now, inclement weather has caused us to cancel wrestling for Friday.  The plan now is to (hopefully) complete the entire D1 tournament on Saturday.  Below is the schedule.  It is going to be a long day packed with great wrestling!  Good luck to all of the participants!

Date: Saturday, February 11, 2017
Site:  Monroe Woodbury Senior High School (click for directions)

Schedule:
9:00 am – Outbrackets/R16 (4 mats)
11:30 am – Quarterfinals (4 mats)
1:30 pm – Semifinals (2 mats) & Wrestlebacks (2 mats)
4:15 pm – Consi Semifinals (3 mats)
5:15 pm – Consi Finals (3 mats)
7:15 pm – Finals (1 mat)

What To Watch For at Day 1 of Section 9 D1 Tournament

The seeds are out so lets take a look at some potential matches we may get to see during Day 1 of the Section 9 D1 Tournament.  The D1 Sections are being hosted by Monroe Woodbury High School.  Wrestling begins at 4:45 on Friday and will continue through the quarterfinal round.  Remember, these are only potential matches based on the seeds.  Matches are won and lost on the mat, not on paper!  Good luck to all the participants!

99 Pounds
The lightweight class is pretty loaded this year so we can expect to see a few hotly contested quarterfinal matches.  We could potentially see #3 Prokosch (Cornwall) take on #6 Chenier (Kingston) as well as #4 Picariello (Minisink Valley) square off with #5 Suarez (Pine Bush).

120 Pounds
Several potential noteworthy matches here!  In the R16 we could see #8 Carson Sauschuck (Port Jervis) go against #9 Sean Savacool (Minisink Valley).  In the quarters we could see a few good ones namely #2 Faison (Wallkill) vs #7 Bouton (Kingston) as well as #3 Owens (Monticello) vs #6 DeLaRosa (NFA).

138 Pounds
There are two potentail quarterfinal matches here that might be interesting in #4 Greer (Pine Bush) vs #5 Estevez (Monroe Woodbury) and #3 Randall (NFA) vs #6 Matos (Middletown).

145 Pounds
In the Port Jervis vs Cornwall dual meet last month, Steve Gazzillo (Cornwall) edged out William Harrison (Port Jervis) by a 3-2 margin.  We could see these two lock horns again in a #4 vs #5 quarterfinal on Friday evening!

152 Pounds
One of the more intriguing matches of Day 1 could be at 152 in the quarters where we could see #3 Tyler Serafini (NFA) take on #6 Nate Garcia (Middletown).

170 Pounds
Several good matches here!  In the R16 we should see #8 Santarpia (Washingtonville) vs #9 Bucci (Saugerties) as well as #7 Ali (Middletown) vs #10 Solek (Washingtonville).  Jason Butler (Port Jervis) defeated Demetrius Moore (Minisink Valley) 1-0 in a dual meet earlier this year.  The two may lock horns again in a #4 vs #5 quarterfinal match on Friday evening!

195 Pounds
Cornwall’s #7 seed John Cassidy will likely take on 2 Warriors from MV on Friday.  In the R16 he will take on Minisink’s second entry, Anton Juncaj.  If Cassidy gets through him he will likely have a rematch again #2 seed Andrew Covais.  Cassidy defeated Covais 4-3 during a dual meet at Minisink back in December.

285 Pounds
Middletown provided us with the biggest surprise at the seeding meeting by announcing that Horace Duke would bump up and enter at 285.  Heaveyweight was already a deep field, and it just got deeper!  Fifth seeded Duke will likely take on NFA’s #4 seed Will McCartney in a Friday night quarterfinal match!
