SNOHOMISH – Starting well is always important, but a strong finish can turn the tide.
That was the case Tuesday night as the Snohomish wrestling team started off with a pin (Spencer Whitlock at 189 pounds), but later gave up early leads to Oak Harbor, which rallied to remain unbeaten with a 37-26 Western Conference North meet victory.
Bobby Pegues (112 pounds) and Steve Lemme (125) both rallied from third-period deficits to earn huge pins for Oak Harbor.
“That was the difference in the match right there,” said Snohomish coach Kevin Judkins, whose team dropped 0-1 in league and 4-2 overall.
“We wrestled really well,” Judkins added, “but it was just a matter of finishing the last 30 seconds.”
Oak Harbor (2-0, 4-0) tallied three pins during the meet.
Mack Stach (175 pounds) had an impressive pin for the Panthers, Judkins added. Stach’s pin came 19 seconds into the third period.
