Johnston wins, Ryan 2nd
HERSHEY Colin Johnston, a sophomore from Canon-McMillan High School, captured the 112-pound gold medal in the PIAA Class AAA Wrestling Championships Saturday night at the Giant Center.
Johnston thrashed Fred Rodgers of Boyertown 12-2 in front of a packed arena. Johnston put the match away early when he hit a five-point move in the first period. He then breezed through the final four minutes, outscoring Rodgers 7-2 for the 10-point win.
Johnston was the first state champion for head coach Chris Mary.
The Canon-McMillan hopes for a second state champion were dashed when Matt Ryan dropped a heart-breaking 1-0 decision to Ryan Goodman of Latrobe in the 152-pound championship. The only point of the match was scored 7 seconds into the third period when Goodman broke free after Ryan tried a lift.
