High-Five: Eagles continue run of dual state titles

A dual match consists of 14 bouts.

But Saturday evening at Allen, the 2013 Texas High School Wrestling Coaches Association Dual State Tournament Finals were, for all intents and purposes, over after six matches as the Eagles had built a 30-0 lead over El Paso Franklin en route to a 55-15 victory and their fifth straight dual state championship.

"We came in with a goal to dominate and I think we did that," said Jerry Best, Allen head coach. "The kids wrestled real tough all day; there are 14 weight classes and we had four duals today, yet we didn't have a lot of bad matches."

Sidekicks look to improve winning ways tonight

Published: Thursday, January 3, 2013 2:20 PM CST
The Dallas Sidekicks continued their torrid return campaign Saturday by thumping the Texas Strikers on the road, 16-4, to keep their undefeated season intact at 6-0.


Just two weeks removed from a franchise-record 21 goals scored against Texas, the Sidekicks didn't relent any less in the teams' third meeting of the season. Racing out to a 9-2 advantage by halftime, Jamie Lovegrove scored four goals in the win including a hat trick in the first half.

Franck Mbemba added four goals of his own, while Carlos Videla (2), Michael Uremovich (2), Paolo Da Silva (2), Renato Pereira and Robert Luevano also scored in the win.

Remaining unbeaten on the year, Dallas has now outscored opponents, 57-16, on the season. The team continues play tonight at 7:30 p.m. from the Allen Event Center against the Rio Grande Valley Flash.

The Sidekicks are 2-0 against the Flash thus far, claiming each outing via a 7-3 decision.
