December 18, 2015

Naperville Central improves to 3-1 in the DVC (7-4 overall) after defeating Waubonsie Valley at home.  Central sweeps the D204 schools in duals.  Christian Nussbaum was awarded a forfeit at 220.  Alex Hunter started the dual at heavyweight and battled to a 1-7 loss.  Kyle Guttosch scored a first period pin at 106.  The freshman used a 2-on-1 to gain advantage on with a takedown and went right to work on top for the fall.  Shuji Mizoguchi also scored a pin at 113 pounds.  Sophomore Nick Keating came out firing and locked down a cradle for a pin at 120.  His brother racked up 16 first period points and scored a pin at the end of the period.  Luc Jandt got the fifth pin in a row this night.  That made the team score 36-3.  Luke Russell fought to the third period but lost by fall.

Steven Bumpus had a good night.  He won by technical fall at 145 after accumulating 21 points mostly by fireman’s carry.  Derek McDaniel was defeated at 152 pounds but he battled hard.  Jackson Punzel had a very good night scoring multiple times on his feet before securing a stick.  Senior Cam Hayes wrested at 170 pounds and found himself in a very tight match.  Both wrestlers traded two takedowns before Cam scored on a beautiful cross knee pick and locked down a pin.  Ben Cianchetti won by forfeit.  Alex Raulickis was up 3-0 but was cradled and pinned in the second period.

The JV1, JV2 teams both won while the freshman team was defeated by WV.
