Northern Varsity Wrestlers Capture Third Consecutive BCSL Liberty Division Title!!
Fans entering Northern's stands Wednesday night knew what was on the line, a league title, but they also knew that Northern had been outmatched just four days earlier at the Jack Welsh duals when Moorestown earned a decisive 38-25 victory. What was the difference? Northern Burlington coach Jule Dolci said. “Guts. Northern’s built on guts." Giving Moorestown their due credit, he continued, "they really took it to us a few days ago, but we took this as a challenge, and we never back down from a challenge.”
Senior John Konopka started to turn the tide of the match when he won a 6-3 decision. Hobbling from a previous day's practice injury, he set the tone that Northern was there to battle for their third straight BCSL Liberty Division title. At 220, L.J. Terry added to the excitement scoring a tech fall and at 106 pounds, Mike Subers continued the tempo in the lightweight bouts with a pin.
With junior Zach Verity, sophomore Court Chase taking back-to-back decisions, and senior Matt Nixon taking a big decision at 152, it was all left on the mat for standout junior Wayne Stinson (24-3) to seal a victory. The night was capped with Stinson's pin, the scoreboard clicked to a Northern win of 35-24, and the fans rejoiced in their team's season efforts.
A special congratulations to the entire team and the endless amount of hours of dedication that have been poured into this season by coaches, parents and fans and those that support the athletics day in and day out. Best of luck in the districts!
