EIGHT LANCERS ADVANCE TO REGIONALS

Luke Gray, Mason McDonald, Clay Kimmy, Landon Harnett, Hudson Spires, Derek Dube, Matt Caro and Conner Avery all finished in the top eight and earned the right to wrestle in next week's NW Regional Tournament in Sharon. Though the Lancers did not have a district champ this year, the eight regional qualifiers matches last season's total.

Hudson Spires was GM's lone finalist. He pinned his first two opponents and then decisioned state ranked, Zac Tuberville of Slippery Rock in a tough semifinal bout. Hudson came out on the short end of a 5-1 decision in the finals to Cathedral Prep's 7th ranked, Brandon Byrd. Clay Kimmy, who was the 145 lbs. section champ last week, took 3rd place. Clay won his first match by technical fall, but then suffered a wild, 12-9 defeat in the semis to 11th ranked, Greyden Gustas of Reynolds. He bounced back with win by medical forfeit and then ground out a 3-0 decision over Greenville's state ranked, Josh Perrino in the consi finals bout!

Luke Gray, Derek Dube, Matt Caro and Conner Avery all battled their way into the consolation finals but suffered defeats in the consi finale. Luke Gray scored two lopsided technical falls before losing to 11th ranked, Van Ward of Union City in the semis. Luke put himself in the consi finals when he scored his third technical fall over LeBoeuf's Carter Friday. He then dropped a 4-1 decision to state ranked, Kael Kimmy of North East. Derek Dube won by fall and then upset 17th ranked, Louie DeJulia of Reynolds in the quarterfinal round. He lost by fall in the semis to Corry's 9th ranked, Mason Savitz, who went on to win the 172 lbs. title. But Derek wasn't finished - he posted another upset in the consolation semifinals over Greenville's 18th ranked, Hunter Cox by a 3-0 count. Derek lost in the 3rd place match to another state ranked opponent, Sam Harrington of Cathedral Prep.

Matt Caro took the long road to a 4th place finish. He won by major decision in the opening round but then fell to eventual 189 lbs. champ, 11th ranked, Emery Johnson of Reynolds in the quarters. Matt came roaring back with three straight victories to make the consolation finals, before dropping an 8-1 decision to LeBoeuf's state ranked, Aiden Struchen. Conner Avery also took the #4 spot on the podium. He went 3-2 with two of his three of his wins being pins. His win by decision was a big upset over state ranked, Stone Root of Sharon in the quarterfinal round. Conner's losses were both at the hands of state ranked heavyweights - 7th ranked and 285 lbs. district champ, John Duran of Fort LeBoeuf in the semifinals and #23, Brian White of Sharpsville in the consolation finals.

Mason McDonald continued to add to his accomplished freshman season with a 6th place finish at 127 lbs. Mason went 3-3 with two wins by technical fall and an upset of Fort LeBoeuf's 16th ranked Brady Bowers in the consolation quarterfinals. All three of McDonald's losses came at the hands of state ranked wrestlers. 127 may have been the most loaded weight class in the tournament. All eight place winners were listed in the state rankings. Landon Harnett was GM's final regional qualifier. He went 2-3, squeaking out a 10-7 decision over Brandon Hoover of Cambridge Springs in the opener and another win by tech fall when it counted, in the blood round.

The GM crew of eight will be back in action next weekend for the NW Regional AA Tournament in Sharon. The Lancers finished 6th as a team last year, sending five of their eight regional qualifiers on to the state tournament.

Notes:

Hudson Spires hasn't stalled in his bid to become the number one pinner in McLane history. He had two pins at districts to bring his career total to 75. He needs one more at either next week's regional tournament or at the state tourney to at least tie his brother, Wilson's record of 76. It will be no easy task at this level but don't count Hudson out! Spires also ran his career wins total to 115 - 15th best on the all time list! Hudson has never won a district title but he IS a three time finalist (2022, 2024, 2025) and he was a 3rd placer in 2023. Not many GM wrestlers have credentials like that.

Clay Kimmy ran his season wins total to a team leading 38 and his career total to 103. He has managed to do one place higher at each of his three distict tournament appearances. He was 5th as a freshman, 4th as a sophomore and 3rd this year. Hopefully he'll skip 2nd and go right to 1st next season!

GM now has three members in the 20+ pins club. Hudson Spires and Derek Dube have 21 stretch jobs each and Conner Avery got his 19th and 20th pins this weekend! Spires and Dube will also be entered (along with Kimmy) into the books for season wins, which is reserved for wrestlers who make it to 33+ W's for the season.

A tip of the cap to Conner Avery and Matt Caro. Conner didn't wrestle last year, so the fact that he has 27 wins with 20 pins and is a regional qualifier is pretty amazing and a testament to what hard work can accomplish! Same for Matt. In his first two years, he was in caught in weight classes with some of GM's best wrestlers, so he only saw limited action. He was 5-6 as a freshman and 7-6 last season. He finally broke into the lineup full time this year and has racked up 27 wins with 8 pins, 3 tech falls and 7 majors - and he's on his way to regionals!

KIMMY NABS SECTION 1 TITLE
10 LANCERS ADVANCE

Clay Kimmy won his first section title this weekend and secured his 100th career win in the process. Clay won his first match by fall and followed up with a 17-0 technical fall in the semifinal round. He picked up an unexpected forfeit victory in the finals over #1 seed, Gabe Dorman of Cathedral Prep to hit the century mark!

Hudson Spires placed 2nd at 160 lbs., pinning his first opponent in the quarterfinals and then sqeaking out a 6-5 decision over #3 seed, state ranked, Lamech Albers in the semis. Unfortunately, Spires injured his ankle during the finals match against Prep's Brandon Byrd and was forced to forfeit. It was Hudson's third appearance in the sectional final - he won the 145 pound title in 2023.

Derek Dube and Conner Avery both finished 3rd. Dube won a lopsided 9-2 decision in the quarterfinals but then fell to #1 seed, 8th ranked, Mason Savitz of Corry. He bounced back in the consi semis with a pin and then upset #3 seed, Titusville's JJ Miller by a 4-0 count to secure 3rd place. Avery took the hard road to the bronze. He came in as the #11 seed and lost his first bout by fall to #3, Owen Nickerson of Corry. But Conner went on a tear after that loss. He posted three straight pins, one of them in the consolation finals over the #2 seed, Max Spaulding of Prep.

Luke Gray and Matt Caro also made it into the consi finals but lost their last bouts. Gray pulled off an upset in the quarterfinals, over North East's Kael Kimmy, 3-2, but then fell to top seed and eventual champ, Sawyer Wolfkeil of Titusville. He rebounded with a 17-0 technical fall to make the consolation final but then came out on the short end of a 4-1 decision in a rematch with Kimmy. Caro came very close to making the finals. He won his first two bouts, one of them over #3 seed, Kameron Mong of Titusville. Matt then lost a 2-1 heart breaker to Fort LeBoeuf's Aiden Struchen in the semis. He won his next bout by fall to make the consolation finals, but then dropped a 4-1 decision in a rematch with Mong.

Mason McDonald went 4-2 with two tech falls and a pin. Mason nabbed the number 5 spot on the podium when he upset #3 seed, Corry's Steven Willis, 2-0 in their placement bout. Lukas Kuffer, Landon Harnett and Peter Sadchikov all placed 6th to advance to next week's district tournament. Wes Simko and Ethan Snyder came up just short of advancing, placing 8th in their respective weight classes.

McLane finished 5th as a team. The GM qualifiers will return to action in next week's District 10AA Tournament at Sharon High School.

Notes:

Congratulations to junior, Clay Kimmy for winning the 145 lbs. title and reaching his 100th career win in the finals. Clay became just the second wrestler in GM history to reach #100 before his senior year. Matt Leehan also hit career win #100 in the 2020 section tournament! Clay also made the books for "season wins" for the second time. A wrestler needs 33 or more to make that list and Kimmy now has 35 on the year. Last year he finished with 34 W's! Hadley Harrison (2006) still holds that record with 48!!!

Derek Dube entered the 20 pin club, just the 30th GM wrestler to pin 20 or more opponents in a single season. Travis Bryant (2011) and Kyle Goss (2006) share the record of 28. Dube also reached the 30 win mark for the season with his victory in the 3rd place bout.

Hudson Spires won twice this weekend to run his career win total to 112. That ties him for 16th place on the list with three other GM wrestlers (Branden Stearns, Andrew Brest and Chris Laird). Spires also holds 2nd place for career pins with 73. His brother, Wilson has the record of 76. Hudson has 19 falls to his credit this season and his semifinal victory was his 30th win this season!

After missing the entire regular season due to an injury, Peter Sadchikov made his first appearance this year at the section tournament. Peter wrestled well and managed to finish 6th, good enough to advance to districts. He won two of his first three bouts which got him into the quarterfinals. After losing in the quarters he pulled out another win in the consolation quarterfinals. That guaranteed him a top six finish. He sat out the last two matches to allow himself more recovery time. Sadchikov placed 5th at last year's section tournament but then placed 3rd at districts! He could prove to be a helpful addition to the post season lineup.

A tip of the cap to Wes Simko who won his first varsity match by fall on Friday! The sophomore just missed advancing to districts when he lost an 8-7 squeaker in the 7th place match.

Congratulations to the Lady Lancers!
Ella Clark - District 10 - 2nd Place
Ashley Campbell - District 10 - 2nd Place
Whisper Abercrombie -District 10 - 2nd Place
All three will represent General McLane at the Girl's West Region Championships in 2 weeks!
Ashley Campbell became the first GM wrestler to qualify for the girl's state tournament last year! She posted a 23-10 record with 18 pins as a junior. Campbell is 21-7 with 14 pins this season and has a career record of 59-27. Abercrombie is 26-9 this season with 22 pins to her credit. Ella is 22-6 with 15 pins!

LANCERS FALL IN D10 OPENER

The GM wrestlers fell in the quarterfianal round of the District 10AA Team Duals to state ranked, North East, 39-25 on February 1st in Sharon. The Lancers, with three of their starters unable to wrestle, just weren't able to keep pace with the talented North East squad. Dom Snyder, Ethan Snyder and Hudson Spires were all sidelined with injuries. It was the first time the McLane wrestling team was defeated in the quarterfinal round since the 2018-2019 season when they lost to Conneaut, in a 30-28 sqeaker.

Jon Rolland had the team's only pin at 189 lbs. Derek Dube won by 18-1 technical fall at 172, Clay Kimmy (145) and Conner Avery (285) both had major decisions and Mason McDonald won by forfeit at 127. North East scored wins in eight weight classes, including three falls.

Cathedral Prep won the tournament with a 45-24 win over the Grapepickers in the semifinals and then a 41-30 win over Corry in the finals. Prep and Corry both advanced to the state team duals tournament.

The GM wrestlers will be returning to the mats on February 14th and 15th in Meadville for the section championships.

Notes:

Clay Kimmy's win against North East was his 32nd of the season. Kimmy, just a junior, has 30+ wins in each of his three wrestling seasons. He had 31 as a freshman, 34 last year and 32 so far this year. His career total is now 97 and it looks like he's on his way to becoming just the second GM wrestler to hit 100 career wins before his senior year. Matt Leehan reached 100 as a junior in the 2020 section finals. Leehan finished his junior year with 106 career wins and had a shot at breaking Ethan Laird's career win record of 137. Unfortunately his senior season was upended by a shortened season due to the pandemic and injuries. Hopefully Clay will have a great senior year and challenge the record!
