G-Prep, CV On Collision Course

Gonzaga Prep and Central Valley remained unbeaten in Greater Spokane League wrestling after wins Friday. The Bears travel to G-Prep on Thursday with the league title up for grabs.

Lewis Peylor’s pin at 101 and Mike Gularte’s 3-2 win over John Smith at 115 turned around the meet as Gonzaga’s league-leading Bullpups (5-0) beat host Rogers 39-24.

Rogers (0-4) gave up 12 points from the start because of forfeits at 178 and 190. G-Prep’s defending state champ, Cory Brannon (122), pinned Derek Houk, a replacement for Daryl Groom.

Pins in three of the first four matches and freshman Dave Burnett’s 10-8 win over Israel Eaton at 122 led CV (4-0) to a 45-14 triumph over visiting Ferris (2-3).

A sweep at 101, 108 and 115, allowed visiting Lewis and Clark (1-3) to beat Shadle Park 43-27 for the Tigers’ first win in a dual meet in 1-1/2 years. The Highlanders are 0-5. , DataTimes
