Strong showing at Smyrna

Warren County?s Casey Mullican, center, shows off the second-place medal he earned in the 103-pound class at last weekend?s Smyrna Dog Pound Tournament.

With only 11 wrestlers competing in the 14 weight classes, seven Pioneers finished with medals, including Jon Paz, who won the 215-pound championship.

Pioneer coaches were extremely proud of their team?s performances, making note of several highlights on theday, including freshman Casey Mullican?s first-ever second-place medal, which came in the 103-pound class. Senior Bobby Rampp (152 pounds) and Aaron Thomas (171) also brought home runner-up finishes, while Casey Welch (119), Rush Reedy (140) and freshman Taylor Bain (285) all took third place in their respective weight classes.

The Pioneers were scheduled for a four-team match at Tullahoma Tuesday afternoon.
