Our first place champions for REVERE were:  Mason Massouh at 80 lbs..  Mason is currently 15 -7 on the season with 11 pins. Dylan Pawlak at 245 lbs.  Dylan is currently 12 - 1 on the season with 9 pins.

The ( 3 ) second place wrestlers for REVERE were: Ved Desai at 122 lbs. Dom Samartano at 142 lbs., and Nathaniel Steiger at 205 lbs.

The ( 2 ) fourth place wrestlers for REVERE were: Rocco Bonacuse at 92 lbs., and Mario Brienza at 116 lbs.

The ( 1 ) fifth place wrestlers for REVERE was: Max Berlin at 134 lbs.

There were several extremely exciting matches throughout the day.  Here are a few Revere matches that come immediately to mind:

Mason Massouh knocking off the number 1 seed by a score of 6 - 5 in his semifinal match.

Max Berlin winning a consolation bracket match by a score of 4 - 3.  That hard fought victory allowed Max to place in the tournament.

For his efforts on Saturday, Mason Massouh was selected as our Wrestler of the Week.  Mason has wrestled up one weight class all season in order to give our wrestling team a stronger lineup.  Saturday was his first opportunity to wrestle at his natural weight, and he definitely made the most of the opportunity.  Way to go, Mason !!!

This Wednesday, January 12th, our wrestlers will travel to Highland.  All the action is scheduled to begin at 5:30pm. 

If you see one of our wrestlers in class, or in the hallway, wish him luck against Highland !!!
