By KEVIN HEIMBIGNER Observer staff writer
LACENTER - Dylan Short was crowned champion at the sub-regional wrestling meet at LaCenter Saturday and Ilwaco had nine boys and one girl move on to regional competition next week at Montesano. Two other boys and one girl are alternates. The top four finishers from the Trico League meet will meet the top four from the Evergreen League in District IV competition and the top five finishers at that meet will qualify for Mat Classic XXII.
Short came in as the number three seed, but pinned his opponents in both the semi-finals and finals for an impressive showing as one of the lightest wrestlers in the 285 pound weight class. Corbin Sutherland was fourth at 103, Rudy Alvarez second at 112, Nick Cox fourth at 152, and Taylor Odneal finished second at 160.
Joe Fjeldheim at 171 and Bobby Richards at 215 both finished fourth to move on to regionals and Sergio Nunez was second to Short at 285. Nakasha Custer was third at 130 in the girls' competition. Alternates who placed fifth were Tanner Bonawitz at 119, Dylan Poe at 140, and Kassi Alderman at 125 for the girls. Poe will compete at regionals because the number four wrestler in his weight class was disqualified.
Cody Wright, Elias Blume, Raven Rogers, and Melanie Hughes also competed for the Fishermen and Lady Fishermen. Trico team placing was Castle Rock 395.5, LaCenter 191, Stevenson 174, Ilwaco 147, Kalama 116, and White Salmon 59.5.
