BATH - Bath Haverling earned an early lead and held it in a 40-22 wrestling victory over Wayland- Cohocton Thursday, Jan. 10.

"I'm pretty happy with the guys," said Bath head coach Jim Fowler. "Overall, we wrestled well. The young kids wrestled pretty good and the older kids did good."

The Rams (22-4, 3-0) built a 25-0 lead with a Brian Hojnoski pin at 96 pounds, while Mitchell Buckley (112) and Isaac Kolz (119) earned decision wins and Brady Gleason (285) and Kyle Conrad (103) won via forfeit.

Hojnoski's victory was unique as he began the second period in the down position and was able to pin Skyler Hendly before recording either escape or reversal points.

Bath added points with pinning wins from Cody Hutcheson (189) and Zack Simons (215), a 1-0 decision win by Sean Daley (140) and a third forfeit to Billy Crowe (130).

Wayland-Cohocton was led by a pin from Andrew Wray (145), technical falls from Neal Vecillio (135) and Brad Vecillio (152) and decisions from Richy Sikes (125) and Scott Reisenberger (160).

JASON COX/THE LEADER Bath Haverling's Cody Hutcheson gets out of a hold by Wayland-Cohocton's Corey Sabins.

"I think were about where we need to be, but we need to just get a little better," Fowler said.
