LANCASTER – At last Saturday’s 48th Annual Lancaster Wrestling Invite, the host Flying Arrows finished fifth of 13 teams, scoring 152 total points and crowned three individual champions.

Taking top honors in the team competition was Dubuque Wahlert, who finished with 219.5 points and crowned two individual champions and three runners-up.

Sparta (193.5) finished second, Riverdale (188) was third, and Fillmore Central (172) was fourth.

Remaining unbeaten on the year and winning the 152-pound title was Lancaster senior Trenton Cornell.

Cornell improved to 20-0 on the season and in his championship match on Saturday, won a 6-3 decision over Connor Hanson (18-3) of Fillmore Central.

Senior Kyle Mezera and junior David Chadd both extended their season record to 22-2, Mezera winning the 126-pound title, and Chadd the 182-pound title.

Mezera, who has won his weight class at the Lancaster Invite for four years now, was named the Most Valuable Wrestler of Saturday’s event.

Mezera won by major decision (11-2) over John Roddick (23-6) of Sparta in his championship match, while Chadd defeated Niko Anderson (20-1) of Fillmore Central, 7-1, to win his title.

Making it to the championships, but losing a 10-4 decision to Brock Polhamus of Sparta was Lancaster sophomore Dustin Reynolds (18-7), while junior Tyson Wolf (17-9) placed fourth at 120 pounds.

Last Thursday night in a conference dual meet with visiting Belmont/Platteville, the Arrows sent the Braves home with a 54-24 loss.

The Arrows received four forfeits and picked up five pins, all coming in the first period, and the longest being 1:27.
