Dawson, Nichols, Heick register pins for Byron-Bergen

Eighth-grader Daniels Dawson, freshman Jaxon Nichols, and junior Devon Heick each had pins, and senior Zach Hannan won by technical fall, but Byron-Bergen fell to visiting Albion 54-23 in wrestling.

Dawson had two first period takedowns before his pin in 2:52 at 106 lb. before Nichols had little trouble using just 55 seconds to put his opponent’s shoulders on the mat at 120 lb.

Heick was trailing 2-4 after the first two minutes of his 160 lb. bout before registering an escape and takedown in the second. His fall came in 5:09.

Hannan, who finished second in the 2018-19 Section V Class B championships and currently ranked second at 152 lb. according to armdrag.com, used two takedowns and a near fall to open up a 7-0 first period lead and extended that to 13-1 after two before a third period reverse and takedown ended the 17-2 technical fall.
