High School wrestling States Review

22 Feb 2015
Details

by Tom Blair, Insidecoloradowrestling.com

The 2015 Colorado high school wrestling championship came to a close Saturday night after three days of competition with 896 wrestlers from around the state. With 56 individual titles on the line and four team titles there was plenty of action on the mats to full tons of articles / stories  with the heartbreaks and the thrill of victory . When you have a match between two foes you are going to have a winner and a loser but each will learn from this experience in the big show at the Pepsi Center.  For some seniors this was the last time they would dome a wrestling singlet and walk onto the mat as they choose not to wrestle at the next level – college. For others it is a stepping stone to get to the next level.  For each of the wrestlers it was an experience that they will never forget and will hold in the memory for the rest of their life.

This year event crowned the 18th Four Time Wrestling Champion as senior Jesse Reed, Paonia  at 126 lbs. beat Jeremy Fraser, Rocky Ford by decision 4 – 1 to also go undefeated on the season with a 46 -0 record.  There were three wrestlers that became 3X champions – 5A 160 lbs. Jacob Trujillo (Grand Junction) 45-0 major decision winner over  Robert Gambrell (Douglas County)  by  12-4 to go undefeated on the season, 2A 170 lbs. TJ Shelton (Meeker) 39-2, Jr. when he pinned  Jose Cisneros (Centennial)  in 50 seconds in the first period of the finals and 195 – Jareb Aziz (Centauri) 40-0, Sr. also going undefeated on the year with a pin over Blaine Larson (Fowler) 36-6, Sr. (Fall 3:51).

Along with undefeated Trujillo, Aziz and Reed Colorado fans were treated in seeing nine wrestlers clam titles and stay undefeated on the season: Sage Budd, Mead 46 – 0; Jimmy Fate, Berthoud 46 – 0; Bo Pipher, Paonia 47 – 0; Dalton Robertson, Weld Central 46 – 0; Parker Simington, Thompson 31 – 0; Chris Sandoval , Pueblo County 16 – 0; Joel Contreras ,Sterling 28-0; Jacob Seely ,Fruita 42-0; and Devin Rothrock, Arvada West 30-0.

Twenty – one returning state champs claimed their second title with wins in the finals.   There are in 2A – 113 - Jonathan Andreatta, John Mall; 120 - Talon Harris, Norwood/Nucla;  138 - Bo Pipher , Paonia,  170 - Zach Milner , Paonia, 145 - Rylan Nordyke, Holly ;

4A – 138 – Hunter Willits, Pueblo County; 132 – Sam Turner, Discovery Canyon; 160 – Parker Simington, Thompson Valley; 220 – Toby McBride, Fort Morgan

5A – 113 - Tomas Gutierrez ,Pomona; 152 - Payton Tawater ,Arvada West; 132 – Matt Finesilver, Cherry Creek;  170 - Deyaun Trueblood, Pomona; 220 - Devin Rothrock , Arvada West

In the 5A team title Arvada West won their 2nd title in a row by 10 points but not before getting nervous as Pomona won the first three weight classes to make a charge at the title. In the end A- West had the title won even before 220 lbs. Rothrock pinned his opponent, the final score was 163.5 to 153.5. In the only overtime match of the evening freshman Jacob Greenwood, Poudre was able to secure a takedown to beat returning champion Rylan Deakin, Legacy 8 – 6.

The 4A team title was a runaway as Thompson Valley placed six wrestlers in the finals and had a commanding lead after Friday evening semifinals. The title is the first for Thompson Valley with 198.5 points and crowning five champions – 113 Morgan Fogg, 120 – Vlad Kazakov, 152 – Ben Hewson, 160 – Parker Simington and 195 – David Euea at a single state is also a first. The Thompson Valley team excelled all expectations with having eight wrestlers place and has set the bar high for next year’s team.  Mike Berg at 170 lbs. placed 2nd, Patton Graff at 182 lbs. placed 5th and Matt Berg at 145 lbs. placed 3rd. Second place Pueblo County with 140.5 finished with three state champions – 106 – Josiah Nava, 126 – Chris Sandoval and 138 – Hunter Willits. Windsor freshman Gerald Mack let the state know he was a force to be reckon with by surprising some of his opponents and making it to the finals at 138, his second place finished is only the beginning of a great high school career.

 The 3A team title was a battle between Valley and Brush with Valley taking a big enough lead before the finals to secure their 2nd team title in a row.  Valley had three wrestlers in the finals compared to two for Brush, but was on able to secure any wins. The 3A had the most wrestlers winning their second state title (see list above) with seven.

The 2A team title was a battle between Meeker, Rocky Ford and Paonia with each having three wrestlers in the finals. It was like a chess match as each team was doing was necessary to put team points on the board. Paonia won all three of their matches to take the lead, Meeker then took the lead by 1.5 points with a pin from Shelton at 170 lbs. The last match that would cut for the title was a won by Nate Finnell (Rocky Ford) at 220. The final team score was Rocky Ford 134, Meeker 123 and Paonia 125.5; this was the 11th team title for Rocky Ford but their first since 1990. Austin Coy , Swink has been a bride maid for 3 years losing in the finals but this year he became the bride as he beat Jake Trujillo (Highland) by 3 – 2 decision.

In 2A it is a dog fight between Paonia and Rocky ford for the team title as only 2.5 points separate the two going into Saturday consolation rounds. Rocky Ford has three wrestlers in the finals – 106 - Jacob Rodriguez,126 - Jeremy Fraser, 220 - Nate Finnell while Paonia also has three wrestlers – 126 – Jesse Reed, 138 - Bo Pipher and 160 - Zach Milner.

The Paonia senior Jesse Reed made it official as he advanced to the 2A final at 126 and will compete for his fourth consecutive weight-class title at the Pepsi Center in the 80th Colorado tournament.Reed continued his onslaught on a field that has yet to come close to challenging him. In the semifinals, he motored to a 15-1 major decision of Wray’s Jake Rockwell. And it’s familiar for Reed. Now 45-0, he earned another major decision (11-1) in the quarterfinals after opening with a pin in 1 minute, 7 seconds in the preliminaries. He will meet Rocky Ford’s Jeremy Fraser (38-6), a junior, in the finale. Reed can become the state’s 18th four-time champion.

In 3A the tight race for team title is between Valley and Brush. Valley has three wrestlers in the finials and Brush has two wrestlers. It is going to come down to the back side of the tournament / consolations to see which team score the most point and placements.

The senior twin brothers of Juilan (138) and Joseph Prieto(145) of Holly Family both made the finals and are looking to cheer each other on for the 1st place title. 

Berthoud has a trio of wrestlers in the finals 120 - Matt Bailey (So), 145 - Jimmy Fate (Jr) which also looking for his second title as he is defending champ in 4A and 170 - Chad Ellis (Jr).

In 4A – 106 lbs  Jason Hanenburg, Air Academy lost 1 -0 in a gutsy move by letting his opponent up in the third period with a 0 – 0 tie on the line. His thinking was that he could take Stephen Dabelko (Widefield) down for the two point takedown but came up short as time run out.

A couple of cousins got the chance the see who would get bragging rights at the next family gathering during the Colorado state wrestling tournament Friday at the Pepsi Center. Air Academy senior Peter Tyler Hanenberg and Canon City freshman Zack Hanenberg faced-off in their 4A 132-pound semifinal match. The older Hanenberg won via decision 7-0.  The pair have never wrestled each other. Both highly competitive — with a close relationship — they’ve never even practiced hard against each other.
