One more obstacle had to be cleared for the Baldwinsville wrestling team before it could concentrate on battling West Genesee Feb. 10 for the CNY Counties League National division regular-season championship.
And when the Bees went to Cicero-North Syracuse last Wednesday night, it swept through all six matches in the higher weight classes to beat the Northstars 45-23.
During this streak, B’ville had three pins, including Niko Wagner, at 171 pounds, taking just 30 seconds to finish off Ariel Anocedo.
Kyle Sheridan (215 pounds) pinned Clayton D’Onofrio in 1:17 to open the meet as Nate Russell (152 pounds) earned his fall over Anthony Kite just before the second period ended.
Elsewhere, James Lang, at 160 pounds, beat Alex Bruinsma in a 23-7 technical fall, while Curt McArdell (145 pounds) routed Chad Izyk 13-4 and Corey Buyck, at 189 pounds, handled Jack Hotaling 11-2, all in the meet’s late stages.
Up at 130 pounds, Cookie Caloia took 4:44 to pin Alex Barry, while John Herholzer (125 pounds) got a 13-7 decision over Rob Brandt and Anthony Finocchiaro (112 pounds) claimed a forfeit.
