WAKEFIELD — The Wakefield High wrestling team continued their terrific season this week with a 3-0 sweep of a quad meet held at the Charbonneau Field House on Saturday and a dual meet victory over Lynnfield/North Reading last night.
The Warriors came away with three victories against three quality teams on Saturday, topping Tewksbury (42-36), Triton (40-26) and Reading (51-22).
The meet against Tewksbury was much anticipated, a team the Warriors frequently match up against in various tournaments including the postseason.
Once again, the fate of the entire meet came down to the last bout as Wakefield’s Kip King shook hands with Daniel Gonzalez at 285 with the two squads tied at 36-36. King left no doubts of a Wakefield win, pinning Gonzalez in just 24 seconds.
Earlier, with the Warriors down 18-6, Aydin Lamb pinned Ryan Callahan in 2:55 at 132 to make it 18-12.
After Tewksbury went up 24-12, the Warriors rattled off five wins in a row to regain the lead, including a 13-6 decision by James Fabbri over Jordan Delorbe at 144, a forfeit at 150, a 58-second pin by Sean Callanan over Cam Guendner at 157, a hard-earn pin in 3:30 by Jaden Fullerton over Colin Todd at 165 and a 9-5 decision from Ryan Hogan over Seamus Macdonald at 175.
Tewksbury got pins at 190 and 215 to set up King’s heroics in the final bout.
The wins were settled a little earlier against Triton and Reading.
