HYDE — Fresh off of their huge win at Bald Eagle Area a week ago, the Clearfield wrestling team might have been susceptible to a letdown Tuesday night against Tyrone, but that was not the case as the host Bison defeated the visiting Golden Eagles, 42-24. Both teams each won five of the 10 contested bouts, but all of the Bison victories came via fall, as they remain undefeated on the year at 6-0.
With a traditional start to the match, the Bison jumped out to a quick 18-0 lead as Cash Diehl (10-2) received a forfeit win at 107.
Teammate Bryndin Chamberlain (7-3) followed at 114 with a first period pin over Kory Walls and then Evan Davis (8-3) received another forfeit at 121.
Tyrone was able to get on the scoreboard at 127 when Logan Rumberger won a 6-5 decision over Clearfield’s Colton Ryan (4-5.)
Bison Colton Bumbarger (2-5) wasted little time getting the momentum back at 133 when he decked Remington Fleck in 1:35.
Brady Collins (9-1) earned six more points for the home team with his own first period pin of Cohen Wallace in 1:40 at 139.
Tyrone’s Lucas Walk logged an 11-4 decision over Pat Knepp (3-6) at 145 in a bout that was closer than the final score appeared.
At 152, Clearfield’s Ty Aveni (6-3) recorded another pin for the Bison when he decked Brody Kline in 3:05.
Andrew Weaver nipped Bison Carter Freeland (8-3) 2-1 at 160 to draw Tyrone a tad closer.
The Golden Eagles picked up six more points at 172 when Kyle Scott received a forfeit win.
Carter Chamberlain (10-1) closed out the winning for the Bison at 189 when he headlocked and flattened Richard Rawlings in 1:22.
Tyrone made the final score respectable by winning the final two bouts of the evening. At 215, Caleb McKinney edged Eric Myers (3-6) 2-1 followed by Braden Ewing’s pin of Nick Bailor (2-2) in 2:26 at 285.
Clearfield is right back in action Wednesday night as they travel to St. Marys (3-0) to take on their D9 foe in a make-up match from December.
