DAVENPORT–Pirate grappler Walker Flynn won both of his wrestling matches and teammates Curtis Winona and Will Winona had mixed results at a league meet here Thursday, June 3.
Flynn pinned both of his opponents from Reardan in the league match that included wrestlers from Davenport, Reardan, Lind-Ritzville, Colfax, Liberty-Spangle and Garfield-Palouse.
"The boys continue to make improvements each week and are wrestling really tough," said Head Coach Ben Slaybaugh.
"Walker Flynn and Curtis Winona both faced familiar opponents with favorable outcomes," Slaybaugh said of the results from the team's third match of the season. Pomeroy wrestled last Tuesday at Ritzville and then moves to the league championships on the home mat on June 12. There will be a match billed as a "culminating event" at Liberty (Spangle) on June 18.
Flynn, in the 160-lb. class, was able to pin both of his opponents, downing L. Hamilton of Reardan and A. Chilson in the second match.
In the 170 lb. division, Curtis Winona split his two matches, losing by fall to J. Cwik of Liberty, then rebounding to win against R. Cash of Davenport.
"Will Winona had three tough matches that came down to the third round and was able to grind out a win in his final match," Slaybaugh said. Wrestling in the 195-lb. class, Winona was pinned by S. Schneider of Davenport in the first match, and K. Martinez of Reardan in the second. He rallied to beat C. Durbin of Reardan in the third go-round.
