Fri. S.J. wrestling roundup: Pitman storms past Holy Spirit

Posted: January 20, 2012

Curtis Nealer's 3-2 decision over Dom LaFragola at heavyweight capped a string of five consecutive wins for Pitman and clinched a 48-27 victory at Holy Spirit on Friday in a nonleague wrestling match.

The Panthers, who picked up half their points on forfeits, rallied from an 18-0 deficit with pins by Nathan Maurer (170 pounds) and Christian Ruggeri (220).

Pennsauken excelled in the upper weights, getting pins from Zachary Trost (170 pounds), Aaron Swann (182), and Shaquille Boardley (285), to pull out a 43-32 home win over Burlington Township. Quincy Williams registered a wild 17-14 decision at 195 for the Falcons.

Burlington County. Heavyweight Arthur Diggs had the fastest of Burlington City's seven pins, needing just 32 seconds to flatten his opponent, and the host Blue Devils won five consecutive bouts - 113 pounds through 138 - in routing Riverside, 57-21.

Colonial. Christian Terinoni's pin at 132 pounds provided enough cushion for West Deptford turn back visiting Collingswood, 37-25.

Falls by Eric Rodriguez (132) and Tim Wolf (182) sandwiched six other wins by host Haddon Township in a 57-16 romp past Gateway/Woodbury.

Paulsboro piled up 11 pins in slamming host Sterling, 76-3. Five of the Red Raiders' falls were registered in the first period, topped by Zach Funk's 27-second takedown at 195.

Louis Arensberg got things rolling for Audubon with a 47-second pin at 106 pounds, and the Green Wave went on to prevail in nine of the first 10 bouts to trounce host Overbrook, 54-22. Bill Henrey (113 pounds), Matt Brandon (126), Pat Brunett (138), Jake Mistalski (145), and Bob Tegan (152) also won by fall, while Devin McMonagle capped the run with a technical fall at 160.
