Saint Wins 1st and 2nd Round of State Duals
The Tribe rolled by Asheboro 47-19 in the first round of the State Duals. The next match with Dudley was a cliff hanger. It came down to the final match of the night with the Tribe ahead by only 5 points.
The Tribe lost in the first match up of the night and went down by 0-6. We bounced back with 5 straight wins to go out to a 28-6 lead. It was a mixture of pins, techs, and forfeits.
215: Anthony Gallardo (SS) p. Rayion Durham 5:47 (SS) 6 (DUD) 6
285: Avery Rhymer (SS) tf. Eric Gant 17-2 (SS) 11 (DUD) 6

Dudley struck back with 6 straight wins to go ahead 27-28
With two matches left in the match, Senior Will Fincher took the mat and clinched a win and put us ahead 33-28.
With a 5 point lead it was up to Micah Geoghegah to seal the match for the Tribe. He tech-falled his opponent to closed out
the match with a 38-28 score. We went 7-7 in wins, but the Tribes ability to score bonus points for pins and tech-falls sealed the
win.
