JH wrestlers wrestle at Plainview
The Osmond J.H. wrestlers competed at the Plainview Invite on Thursday, Nov. 15. The Tigers scored 67 points and finished in 9th place out of the 18 teams competing. Pierce was the team champion followed by Plainview and O’Neill. The Tigers were led by Alex Vinson who was the champion of the 145 lb bracket and Caleb Miller who finished as runner up in the 98 lb bracket. Also placing for Osmond was Robert Aschoff, 3rd at 83 lbs and Dominic True, 4th at 93 lbs. James Doyle and Xander Brown each won a match but did not place.
This is always a really tough tournament with a lot of schools but I thought that all of our kids wrestled really well. Everyone finished with at least one win and we finished with 4 medals out of the six wrestlers who competed. Alex Vinson really wrestled well picking up three wins against quality opponents to remain undefeated on the year. Caleb Miller had a tremendous tournament picking up three wins to make it to the finals of the 98 lb bracket. In the finals match Caleb had an early lead before having to stop because of an injury. Robert Aschoff also wrestled well picking up 3 wins on his way to a third place finish in the 83 lbs bracket. Dominic True also picked up three wins all by pins on his way to a fourth place finish in the 93 lb bracket. Although James and Xander didn’t place they both wrestled and competed well with each picking up 1 win against good competition.
