Columbus edges past Pittsburg, 37-36
The Morning Sun Posted Jan 23, 2009 @ 12:47 AM
INDEPENDENCE — A change in weights for Columbus made all the difference in the Titans’ prep wrestling dual with Pittsburg at Independence on Thursday.
Columbus head coach Todd Napier elected to move undefeated, and No. 1-ranked C.J. Napier from 140 pounds to 145 and B.T. O’Hara from 135 to 140. The move paid off as Columbus picked up a 37-36 dual win over the Dragons.
The Dragons started off on the right foot as state-ranked Aaron Seybold pinned Austin Profitt in 29 seconds at 103, then Austin Haake pinned Caleb Jones in 1 minute, 33 seconds at 112 pounds.
Pittsburg continued to dominate the lighter weights as Mario Corado pinned Jacob York at 119. From there, Kyle Johnson defeated Pittsburg’s Brent Koehn, 5-1 at 125 and Zach Conway pinned Dong Cheol at 130 in 30 seconds.
Columbus’ Nick Thomas pinned Michael Eller at 1:13 then O’Hara pinned Devin Schulze at 2:14.
Napier collected a 12-4 major decision over Daniel Blair at 145 and Paul Morris won a 15-14 decision over Pittsburg’s Brandon Maxwell at 152 pounds. Jordan Brown was uncontested at 160 pounds and Pittsburg got back on track when Buck Wilcox pinned Damion Tinnin at 171.
Cougar Von Felt took care of Nathan Morris with a pin at 1:41.
Columbus stayed in the dual with a 8-1 decision over Austin Winner at 215, leaving the deciding match at 285 pounds.
At the heavyweight division, Tank Burns pinned Kyle Baker at 1:22, giving the Titans the one-point win.
Columbus also came back to knock off Independence, 46-27 to run their Southeast Kansas League dual mark to 3-0.

does coffeyville even have a team. Back in the day the Sek was one of the toughest areas for wrestling. They arent bad now but just dont think they have teams like they did in the past.

a team victory, #1, let someone else take the forfeit. the dark side, and the inside voices have clouded your common sense.

with population forever shifting north and west it is tougher for SEK to produce as many tough teams. there's still plenty of good wrestling down here, scott.

I would compare any comet record this year to those of this particular year.
