First Round

Coach Beach 40, McKeel 33

McKeel’s Andrew Sapp got them off to a great start with a fall of Ian Lopez at 190 … unfortunately Cocoa Beach would take control of the dual from that point. Nathan Pond had a fall and Madden Fredenburg had a forfeit at 285 to put Cocoa Beach up 12-6. In what would prove to be decisive wins for Cocoa Beach in the dual … Duane Mallory got a 7-4 win over Jordan Gerzenshtein and Nador Shalaby downed Austen Frauenfeld 7-2 at 113 to put Cocoa Beach up 18-6 after 5 matches. Coach Beach continued to roll with a fall from Anthony Aquafredda and Adrian Day, a major decision by Wyatt Crouser and a fall by William Day at 138. That put the dual 40-6 with 5 matches remaining and out of reach for a comeback. Cade Beke and Jean Benavidez each had falls for McKeel and Caleb Causey, Deacon Warren, and Joshua McGinnis each got points for McKeel, but they couldn’t make up the deficit and Cocoa Beach advances to meet Palm Bay with a 40-33 win.
