Junction City wrestler Mike Treat pinned Clay Center's Alex Gaines with just under a minute left in their match. The win, and six points, gave the Blue Jays their first win over Clay Center in five years at home Thursday night.
The 285-pound match became the de facto title match after the Blue Jays' Dexter Chase was pinned by Michael Patenaude in the preceding match.
"That was a very good win for us," coach Bob Laster said of the 34-28 decision over the Tigers. Clay Center entered the dual with the Class 4A No. 1 ranking.
