The Tigers will be sending TWO wrestlers to the PIAA State Championships in Hershey, PA this week.  Both Dylan Nuttall and Dustin Stone qualified for the PIAA Championships by finishing in the top-five in their respective weight classes at the South East Regional Championships that took place on Friday-Saturday at Oxford Area High School.  Nuttall (120lbs) fell to Derek Gulotta of Owen J. Roberts by a score of 1-0 in the first round, then rallied with wins over Nik Zimmerman (Downingtown East) 5-0; Noah Hankin (West Chester East) 6-4; then guaranteed himself a top-4 finish with a 4-3 win over Micah Visuwan of Pennridge.  Nuttall fell to Matt Marino of Garnet Valley in the Consolation Final.  

Dustin Stone (145) opened up the weekend with a pin over Ian Larson of Unioville; then fell to Dominick Petrucelli of Owen J. Roberts by a score of 1-0.  Dustin came back strong on Friday, beating Tyler Lacosta (Kennet) 7-0 and Nick Beauchamp (Spring Ford) 1-0.  In the Consolation Semi-final, Stone fell to Chase Stephens of Coatesville 11-0.  In Stones final match of the evening, he was trailing Hunter Vogels of Bopyertown 4-0 before a late third-period rally where Stone put Vogles to his back and got the pin to earn his ticket to HERSHEY.  This is both Dyaln and Dustin's first year qualifying for the State Championship tournament - they are the first two Truman wrestlers to qualify since James Bak in 2009.  Nuttall and Stone's performances allowed Truman to finish 19th overall in the South East Region, represented by 60 schools.  

Nuttall enters the State tournament with a record of 35-5 (136-22 career); Stone enters with a record of 36-8 (98-24 career).  

Congratulations to both Dustin and Dylan on their great performances!

Wrestling will begin on Thursday and continue through Saturday evening at the Giant Center in Hershey, PA.  Medals will be awarded to the top-8 finishers in each weight class.

Due to the weather, the District I AAA Championship tournament was forced to be split into a two-day event.  The tigers entered the tournament yesterday (2/21/15) with six wrestlers, and now have five remaining.  Of those five, Dennis Burns (113), Dustin Stone (145), Justin Litz (195), and Brandon Wiley (220) are all one win away from earning trips to compete in the South East Regional Championship next Friday-Saturday.  Dylan Nuttall (120) locked his bid to Regional Championships in yesterday as he won two Major Decisions to earn a spot the the championship final of the District I tournament.  Dylan's semifinal win, a 17-5 major decision over Kristian Courtney of William Tennent, marked his 133rd win of his high school career -- the most in Truman Wrestling History!  The District I tournament will wrap up on Monday (2/23/15) beginning at 5pm at Interboro High School. Congratulations and Good Luck to the final five!  As always, thank you for the continued support!

Six Tigers were able to claim a top-4 spot in the Suburban One National League Championships on Saturday (2-14-15) held at Neshaminy to earn a spot in the District I AAA Championships on Saturday (2-21-15) hosted by Interboro High School.  Dylan Nuttall won his first SOL title, going 3-0 on the day, including a 4-0 win over Pennsbury's Connor Joyce in the championship round.  Nuttall moves into the District championships as the Number 1 seeded wrestler, and will likely meet with Joyce again in the final at Interboro.  Dylan also enters this weekend just 2 wins away from matching the school record of 132, held by Sean Edmonson.  Dennis Burns and Dustin Stone both claimed Second place medals and are certainly looking to earn another top-4 spot at the District Championships this weekend.  Brandon Wiley (220), Justin Litz (195), and Austin Vossbein (132) all earned third-place medals and will also be contending for a bid the the Regional Championships next weekend.  

11 wresters from the 3 League Championship tournaments will meet at Interboro for the District I AAA Championships this Saturday (2-21-15) - The top-4 wrestlers in each weight class will advance to the South East Regional Championships next week (2/27-2/28) at Oxford High School.  The top 5 wrestlers in each weight class at the Regional Championships will earn a spot in the PIAA AAA Championships at the Giant Center in Hershey on March 5-7.
