Hiscox, Harlow and Van Horn lead Cardinals over the weekend.

Sophomore 170-pounder Jacob Hiscox  followed a 2-0 night Thursday at Ranier with a second-place finish at the Molalla Invitational Saturday for the Cardinal wrestling team.  Hiscox downed Clatskanie’s Adam McMillan in 1:19 before overcoming a first-period slam against Ranier’s Dorian Graff to pin him in 3:54.  On Saturday, Hiscox, who evened his record at 15-15, pinned Cody Reinecker of Molalla in 34 seconds and fell to Luke Aterbery of Mountain View in the finals for a runner-up finish.

Joining Hiscox with a second-place finish at Molalla was sophomore Dax Harlow at 160.  Harlow pinned Scott Germany of Colton in 2:34, before pinning Gareth Haskins of Yamhill-Carlton in 1:58 in the semifinals and falling to Clay Kemper of Banks in the finals.  On Thursday, Harlow took a forfeit against Clatskanie and was pinned by Will Rose of Ranier in 3:57.

Junior David Van Horn (138), accepted a forfeit against Ranier and earned a technical fall against Clatskanie’s Lynn Siltala 17-0 on Thursday.  At Molalla, he overcame a first-round loss to Brandon Anderson of Yamhill-Carlton and wrestled back to finish fourth.   Overall he went 2-2 on the day, and 4-2 over the two events.

Freshman Cody Lee went 1-4 over the two days at 152 and 160.  His win avenged a loss to Colton’s Scott Germany two weeks ago in a 7-6 thriller in the consolation bracket at Molalla.

Coach Long

This past week has been a very good one for our boys basketball team. On Tuesday we traveled down to Warrenton to play the Warriors. We have not won down there for many years. But on Tuesday night that changed as we battled to a 55-38 win. Trailing for much of the first half, the Cards came back late in the second quarter and went into the locker room with a 24-21 lead thanks to a 3 pointer at the buzzer by Isaac Noles. Corbett dominated much of the second half, especially the 4th Quarter where the Cards held Warrenton to 2 points. Scoring leaders were Oliver Tymoshuk and Alex Cicerich with 15 each, followed by Noles and Joe Deibert with 10 each.

On Friday, we hosted Catlin Gable in our annual retro-cheer night. The larger than normal croud was treated to a wall to wall win by Corbett, 64-39. The game featured a dominating performance by senior Joe Deibert with 13 rebounds and 14 assists. He continually found teammates open and delivered with great passes.  Isaac Noles was the recipient of several of those passes and led the Cards in scoring with 16 pts. Oliver Tymoshuk had 11, Alex Cicerich 9 and Josh Hooley 8. The next night on Saturday, we traveled to Rainier to play the Columbians. Rainier was in first place in our league with only 1 loss, to us, back on January 5th. We jumped out to an 11-4 lead after one quarter and the lead stayed about the same until 1 minute to go in the game. That is when Rainier roared back from a 9 point deficit to cut the lead to 1 with 3.9 seconds in the game. The Cards were fouled, but after missing a free throw, Rainier had one chance with a 3/4 court heave, but the shot missed badly and the Cards had beaten the league leaders in their own house!  Oliver Tymoshuk led the scoring with 15, Joe Deibert had 12, and everyone else gave great efforts in the team win. It was a great week, and Corbett is in position to finish strong, with league playoffs just around the corner.
