Chesapeake of Anne Arundel County, Legacy Wrestling’s No. 20 team in the state of Maryland, won the team title at the Grindstone Duals hosted by Winters Mill High School this weekend, posting a 9-0 record, with only two of their matches being close, a 49-24 win over La Plata and a 41-34 victory against Leonardtown, which was essentially the championship match as those teams finished first and second.
There were no pools used, just a nine team round robin affair, where the ten teams wrestle matches versus everyone else, so the championship match can occur at any time and in this instance, it was Chesapeake’s sixth match.
Prior to the Leonardtown meeting, the Cougars downed North Harford (67-9), Eleanor Roosevelt (69-9), Winters Mill (54-18), La Plata, and North County (55-17). Winters Mill was third and La Plata fourth in the team standings.
After Leonardtown, Chesapeake beat Virginia’s Riverside (55-17), Long Reach (77-4), and Catonsville (80-0).
“Chesapeake had an impressive win at the Grindstone tournament, going 9-0,” said Chesapeake coach Randall Curtin. “We knew Leonardtown would be our toughest opponent. They were very strong from 126 to 175, and at 285. Fortunately, our 190 pounder (Dean Michael) was able to swing the momentum in our favor. The meet started at 138.”
“La Plata was surprisingly strong. The hosts, Winters Mill, were strong in the lower to middle weights. Carson Roberts and Bently Schmidt, both 120 for us as we split matches between them, were very impressive. Also, Brayden Roberts and Xander Dodd had very strong tournaments.”
No. 5 Xander Dodd (215) led the way for the Cougars with a 9-0 record. Two of Dodd’s wins came against the state ranked rivals, No. 12 Daniel Ezirike (Eleanor Roosevelt) was pinned in the second period, 3:55, and No. 20 Holden Young (North Harford) was handed a 4-2 loss.
Hunter Wargo (106) was 7-0. A few others went undefeated over limited action, No. 13 Bently Schmidt (120) and Carson Roberts (120) were 5-0. Mason Szczesezek (113) was 3-0 and Landon Szymanski (106) was 2-0.
8-1 tallies were put in the scorebook by Brayden Roberts (126), Rex Graves (138/144), and Owen Collins (150). Collins beat No. 20 Landon Buchmann (Winters Mill), 13-6. Roberts picked up quality wins over Olu Faniyi (Eleanor Roosevelt), 18-9, and Ethan Cronkright (Leonardtown), 22-5.
Roberts’ loss came to No. 10 Tommy Blankenship (North Harford), 12-10. Graves was beaten by No. 17 Leo Foreman (Eleanor Roosevelt), Collins fell to Leonardtown’s Will Colson, 13-5. Quin Greenstreet went 5-1 at 113 with his loss coming against Roosevelt’s No. 3 Austin Hayes, 12-2.
Matthew Curtin (175) and Dean Michael (190) were 7-2. Dominic Ayres (132) was 6-2. Trevor Webb went 6-3 at 157lbs. At 165, Phillip Ramsey was 3-1 and Collin Richardson went 3-2. 4-4 records were inked by Logan Henry (138/144) and Jonas Dotson (285).
