Sports commission delivers Buddy Collings | INSIDE HIGH SCHOOLS November 29, 2007 Maybe because it had so many other dance partners lined up in the tourist game, Greater Orlando didn't give flirtatious advances by the Florida High School Athletic Association much of a look for years. Suddenly, it's a romance.

NOTES: The tourney coaches voted on Best Finals Match and Outstanding Wrestler: Oviedo's Chase Gordon was involved in the match selected as Best Finals Match. Chase, a sophomore, lost in 2OT's to Gerard Spice of Kell at 140 pounds. Spice is a 3X State Placer. This weight class was one of the toughest in the tourney as it also included a wrestler who was a state runner-up last year and one who took third at the state tourney. Oviedo's Jake Schalles was voted the tournament's Outstanding Wrestler. Schalles, wrestling at 160 went 4-0 for the tourney with 4 pins to include a stick in 1:04 in the finals. www.oviedowrestling.org www.zacjarzynka.org |
