SHERBURNE – With only 10 wrestlers participating, Sherburne-Earlville placed fifth in team scoring at the Section III, Class B meet last weekend, and Greg DuVall along with Chris Pike earned titles to highlight the Marauders’ performance.

DuVall won a 3-0 decision at 112 pounds over Dan Walts of V-V-S to improve to 36-4 on the season. Pike (285), meanwhile, remained unbeaten on the season pinning Mike Barker of Morrisville-Eaton in 51 seconds. Pike and Barker had met three times already this season, with the first three ending in one-point wins for Pike. “We sure thought that was going six minutes,” said S-E assistant coach Brian Hicks of Pike’s win.



Overall, six S-E grapplers earned bids to next week’s Division II sectionals at Cicero-North Syracuse High School. Alec Sheddon (103), Daniel Hicks (130), and Wheeler Brunschmid (171) all placed second, while Joe Knapp (140) was fourth.

“That’s a good finish for us being as young as we are,” Hicks said. Brunschmid is the lone S-E senior among the sectional tournament qualifiers.
