WRESTLING
Chambersburg takes 2nd place: The Trojans brought home eight individual medals and placed second as a team as the Southern Tier Memorial Tournament finished up on Saturday at First Arena in Elmira, N.Y.

"I was pretty happy with the kids," Trojan coach Matt Mentzer said. "They're getting better, not just one or two of them, but all of them."

Cody Seabolt

Aiden Hight was the only champion for Chambersburg and he did it in a big way at 215 pounds. He had pins of 0:56, 1:00, 3:23, 0:24 and then 0:52 in the final over Ryan Casella of South Williamsport.

Mentzer said, "The kid he had in the final is ranked in the top 10 in 2A (in PA), but he went upper body with Aiden, and Aiden did what he does."

Zach Sherman was the runner-up at 124, falling 9-1 to Chase Nevill of Copenhagen, N.Y. in the final. In his semifinal bout, he went into overtime, outscoring Cameron Garcia of Bellefonte 6-2 before pinning him.

"Sherm was wrestling up a few pounds and he didn't have a weak kid in his bracket," Mentzer. "He looked good."

Cody Seabolt placed third at 101, with 5 pins, and Logan Mickey was third at 138. Mickey had an escape and takedown in the second period to go up 3-0 on Jacob Kennedy of St. Anthony, N.Y. in a 5-3 win.

Placing fourth were Ashton Romberger at 131 and Jaccob Stoner at 190, who had four pins. Tyler Frye also took 7th at 145 after dropping his first bout and Frank Barrientos took 8th at 285.

Mentzer said, "Stoner knocked off several higher seeds to get to the semifinals and Romberger and Mickey won some close matches. Seabolt got to wrestle in his best weight class and got five pins. Even guys like (Isiah) Tasker and (Zethan) Sleighter) won a couple of matches — Tasker beat the No. 2 seed in the consolations."

Chambersburg scored 177.5 points to place second behind Tioga, N.Y., which had 256.5. Athens was third (152.5) and Bellefonte was fourth (137.5).
