Einstein wrestling 3-17-16

Einstein bounced back from their Tuesday loss to Meadowdale win a big 75-37 win over Eisenhower on Thursday.

After Eisenhower earned a pin at 113lbs the Tigers held a slim 24-16 lead. Huge back-to-back pins by wrestlers Curt Tanaka and Devin Leach, each improved to 7-0 on the season, began a 45-6 run across nine weight classes that put the match out of reach. The streak was punctuated by a gutsy 3-1 overtime victory by 178lb Taejin Thongdee. Thongdee has now won five matches in a row and improved his record to 6-1.

Einstein wrestles next on Tuesday, March 22nd, at Olympic View Middle School.
