Spring-Ford claims Big Red Duals title; North Penn tops Wood for 3rd

FRANCONIA >> It’s a shame there were only a handful of fans remaining at Souderton Area High School early Saturday night.

But the threat of ice and snow sent many wrestling fans scurrying for  the parking lot long before Spring-Ford froze out Woodstown, 31-28, to land the Big Red Duals team title.

Jonathan Westlake, Ben D’Arcangelo, Jack Files and Chase Smith gained the key victories after the New Jersey-based Wolverines had built a 16-0 lead after just three bouts.

“It was a team effort, up and down the lineup,” said Rams head coach Tim Seislove after the final whistle of a long day had been blown.

“We wanted to win, that was the goal,” echoed Brandon Meredith, “who won by forfeit in the victory. “We knew we were capable of winning, and everyone did what they needed to do.”

The Rams reached the finals the hard way, topping North Penn in the semifinals, 38-20, while the Jersey-based Wolverines blew up Archbishop Wood, 39-22.

And in the finals, the Rams shook off the early deficit and beat their foes the way they needed to be beaten – via  a team effort.

“Before the match, Coach told us they’d get a little rowdy early on, but that all we had to do was do what we planned..

“And it worked.”

Staring at a 16-0 defciit, the Rams got on the board via a Westlake decision at 145,, then got wins from D’Arcangelo, Files and Smith to pull within 19-14.

The Wolverines blew the lead back out to 25-14, but the Rams won out to earn the victory.

“We knew we had to win up top and down low,” Meredith said. “And that’s what happened.”

Elsewhere, North Penn’s Colin Shannon earned his 100th victory in the day’s opening match, a North Penn victory over Bensalem.

He was pleased with the win, but was more pleased with the performance of his team, especially in the third-place match over Archbishop Wood, a team the Knights lost to recently..

“We had a lot of people step up today,”  Shannon said.  “Guys like Owen (Verespy) he lost to the guy he beat today.

“We just did what we needed to do.”

Elsewhere, Pennsbury placed ninth, Wissahickon finished eighth and Souderton took fifth, as the Suburban One League contingent showed off their strength.

A win over Downingtown East in the opening round was particularly pleasing to Wissahickon coach Anthony Stagliano.

“We take a lot of heat for our schedule,” he said, “but we beat a quality team in Downingtown East, and we wrestled well today overall.”
