FRESNO CITY REGAINS LEAD
HEADING INTO FINALS
By John Van Gaston for
the COA
Looking to hold off both Santa Ana College and Sierra College, host school Fresno
City College takes a 14-point team lead heading into the championship round
of the California Community College Commission on Athletics Wrestling Championships
held at Fresno City College. The host Rams have amassed 131 team points and
lead both Santa Ana and Sierra, who each have 117 points, while Cerritos has
locked down fourth place and has 97.5 points heading into the finals.
However, the Dons of Santa Ana have five wrestlers in the state championships,
while the Rams have three and the Wolverines of Sierra have just two. Additionally,
Cerritos has three in the state championships. A win in the state championships
is worth four team points, while a major decision (a win by eight or more points)
is worth five points, a technical fall (a win by 15 points) is worth 5.5 points
and a pin earns a team six points.
Sierra worked their way back into the top three by picking up two third place
and three fourth place finishes, while Santa Ana slipped and saw their other
competitors turn in a fifth and two sixth place finishes. Fresno City has held
steady and will be the only team to have all 10 of their wrestlers place, as
they have registered a third place, two fourth places, two fifth places, and
sixth place and a seventh place finisher.
