Grothe, Scott reach Kelley wrestling finals

Anonymous Enid News and Eagle The Enid News and Eagle Fri Feb 01, 2013, 11:05 PM CST

TULSA, Okla. — Enid junior 126-pounder Billy Grothe and senior 220-pounder Jake Scott reached the finals of the Bishop Kelley wrestling tournament Friday.

Grothe won three matches, including one by a fall, to reach the finals against Tulsa East Central’s Mark Carter, who beat Grothe at the recent Coweta Tournament. Grothe has a team-high 21 wins.

Scott won two matches, both by falls, to reach the finals against East Central’s Josh Herman. The two have not wrestled this season. Scott has 15 wins this season.

“They both are going to have tough matches,’’ said EHS assistant coach Trent Holland. “If they wrestle well, they will have a good chance to win.’’

The Plainsmen still have five wrestlers alive in the consolations — 138-pounder Clay Jacks, 152-pounder Keegan Clayton, 160-pounder Hunter Nixon, 170-pounder Hank Schulz and 195-pounder Zack Overbeck. EHS had nine wins overall on the day, including six pins. Overbeck and Schulz had falls.

“We wrestled a lot better on our feet,’’ Holland said. “We had a lot more takedowns than we have been getting.’’

The tournament is Enid’s last competition before regionals Feb. 15-16. EHS lost a dual to Jenks, 54-18 Thursday night.

Sooners zero in on Big 12
Oklahoma has made a complete turnaround in the last two days. The squad that looked dominant early in the season has re-emerged at the Big 12 tournament. The Sooners (38-19) rolled to their second straight tournament victory, thumping Texas Tech (25-30), 8-0, Friday, and improving to 2-0 in the event.
After three weeks of struggling, the team OU thought it would be surfaced. The mix of premier pitching and timely hitting was overwhelming to Baylor on Thursday and Texas Tech on Friday.
More importantly, the victories set up the Sooners’ meeting with Kansas State, which topped Baylor 13-9 Friday, at 12:30 p.m. today. The winner advances to Sunday’s championship game.

Claborn pleased with WHS progress
The Deer Creek-Lamont team camp has given Waukomis football coach Jon Claborn an idea of how much his team has progressed over the past year.
A newly hired Claborn a year ago took his team to the DCLA camp with three days of spring football behind them.
“We’re leaps and bounds ahead of where we were last year,’’ Claborn said. “We have looked really good ... we’re a year older, stronger, and hopefully, a year smarter.’’
The DCLA camp has offered the Chiefs good competition with teams such as defending Class B state runner-up Pond Creek-Hunter, Coyle and the host Eagles among the participants.
