Cranberry brought home three medals from the PIAA AA Wrestling Championships this weekend in Hershey.
 
Dalton Wenner won his final 107 match of the tournament with a 4-1 decision over Gage Swank of Muncy. Wenner's season record was 34-5 and he was 3-2 on at states. It is the freshman's first trip to the championships, and he received a seventh-place medal for his efforts.

Brosius had an exciting ending to his second trip to Hershey. He and Max Wirnsberger of Meadowbrook Christian took their 121 bout the whole way to the ultimate-tie breaker round. After 7:30 minutes of wrestling, Wirnsberger was declared the winner based on his position during the final 30-second period and received one point to break the 2-2 tie. It is the second eighth-place finish for Brosius, who finished in the same podium spot at 106 in 2022.

​This year, Brosius had a 34-13 record and was 2-3 on the tournament. The Sophomore has an impressive 66 wins in his career already.

McFetridge ended his high school career with a victory via a forfeit. He was supposed to wrestle Dante Burns of Conwell-Egan at 215, but his opponent defaulted based on injury. That gave the senior from Oil City the seventh-place spot in the bracket. He ended the season 39-7 and 4-2 in the tournament. McFetridge, who had a very abbreviated sophomore season, ended his career as a Berry with a 73-26 record.
​
CASH’s Collin Hearn and Hunter Gould also brought some wrestling hardware back to the region.
Hunter Gould defeated Cyrus Hurd of North East with a 4-0 decision in the 127 bracket, avenging a loss to his District 10 rival at the North West Regional competition earlier this month. The win gave the junior Eagle fifth place at states, an improvement from last year’s sixth-place finish. He was 39-5 on the year and has already amassed 97 wins during his career with CASH.  

Teammate senior Collin Hearn dropped an 8-0 decision to Deegan Ross of Lackawanna Trail in the third place bout of the 160 class. It was the first time Hearn has medaled at the state tournament after qualifying in 2021 and 2022 as well. He finished the season with a 37-7 record and closes out his career as an Eagle at an impressive 113-29. ​
