Notebook: Central Crossing Comets wrestlers see practice time pay off
Coach Jamie Ramirez is learning more about his Central Crossing wrestling team despite limited competition.
The Comets saw their workouts in the practice room pay off with strong performances during the holiday break.
During a home quad Dec. 30, they defeated Westerville South 54-24 and Ready 54-16 and lost to Central District-power Delaware 36-30 to move to 5-3 in dual competitions.
“We’ve added quite a bit of duals,” said Ramirez, whose team opened OCC-Buckeye Division action Jan. 7 against Lancaster. “(Normally) by this time we would’ve had two or three tournaments.

New Lex girls sprint past Morgan; Rosecrans boys open with big win
MCCONNELSVILLE, Ohio – The last time the Morgan and New Lexington girls teams met, it took a half-court buzzer beater from Sophia Smith to put the game away for the Raiders.
But that game was nearly a year ago, and these teams have developed into two very talented squads who, some may say, are the favorites to win the MVL Small School division.
The Panthers came in to today with the unexpected advantage of actually playing games this year. Morgan has gone through multiple quarantine periods and postponements, meaning that Saturday was their very first time taking the court in the new season.
