Wednesday, Jan. 5

Class A North

No. 4 Howell 32, No. 3 CBA 31

Sophomore Giovanni Scafidi scored a takedown in sudden victory to win 5-3 in the final bout at 144 pounds to deliver the Rebels (2-0, 2-0) a dramatic walk-off win over the Colts (3-1, 3-1) inside a raucous Howell gymnasium on Wednesday night.

Trailing 3-1 to CBA's Nick Punzi in the third period, Scafidi hit the tying takedown with 1:05 left in regulation and rode Punzi out the rest of the way to force overtime. He needed just 15 seconds in the sudden victory overtime period to counter a shot by Punzi and whirl behind him for the bout-winning and match-clinching takedown.

Junior Kieran Bruen was another hero thanks to his 4-3 win over CBA freshman AJ Falcone at 132 pounds in the third-to-last bout. Bruen scored a takedown with 42 seconds left to go up 4-2 and held Falcone for the one-point win that gave Howell a 29-26 lead. CBA junior Julian George then won by fall at 138 pounds to give CBA a 31-29 lead heading into the final bout. But Howell had Scafidi waiting, bumping up the newest Rebel who was able to rally for the heart-pounding victory.

Scafidi, who wrestled for Freehold Township as a freshman before his family moved to Howell, was a region finalist last season.

The win for Howell avenges a defeat at the hands of CBA last season that ended the Rebels' streak of 15 straight Class A North division titles.
