Doyle does it: CM sophomore headed to Columbus

0

WILMINGTON – Clinton-Massie sophomore Colton Doyle has qualified for this week’s OHSAA Wrestling Championship at Ohio State’s Schottenstein Center.

Competing at 195 pounds in the Division II Southwest District tournament at Wilmington, Doyle had two epic matches with Christian Meyers of Valley View. In the quarterfinal round, Doyle scored a 2-1 win then he put the finishing touches on a third-place finish with a 1-0 win in the consolation final against Meyers.

Canon Ford was Wilmington’s top finisher, placing sixth at 170 pounds.

Robby Frederick of Clinton-Massie finished fifth at 145 pounds. A frustrating finish to be sure, Frederick came back to defeat Kyle Mink of Monroe 7-4 in the fifth-place match. Mink defeated Frederick in the first match of the tournament, 8-2, to put the CM junior in the consolation bracket.

From there, Frederick won four matches by decision before earning an alternate spot for the state tournament with the win over Mink.

Massie’s Braxton Green (170 pounds) and Wilmington’s Lee Lynch (126 pounds) and Jaydon Doyle (220 pounds) were all fifth place finishers at last week’s sectional tournament but earned a spot in the district as an alternate because one of the wrestlers dropped out in their weight class.

There were no fewer than 15 wrestlers who qualified for the district tournament that were kept out because of skin issues, according to both Wilmington coach Kelly Tolliver and Clinton-Massie coach Spencer Running.
