Eastern moves up to No. 2, its highest ranking in years
Bristol Eastern is ranked No. 2 in the latest state coaches poll – its highest ranking in this century. The Lancers (7-0) moved up three spots to No. 2. Danbury (5-0) remains the No. 1 team in the state with all 15 first place votes. It’s the highest ranking for Eastern since they were ranked No. 4 on January 27, 2014. Southington, who finished second behind Mt. Anthony, Vt., at their own Connecticut Duals on Saturday, made their top 10 debut this season at No. 9. Ellis Tech, who finished third among eight teams at the KSA Duals in Orlando, slipped out of the top 10.

Jack wins Midlands title with tight victories
EVANSTON, Ill., Dec. 30 -- Danbury’s Kevin Jack, a junior at North Carolina State, won the 141 pound weight class at the prestigious Midlands Championship Friday night with a 1-0 victory over No. 3 Matthew Kolodzik of Princeton. Jack, who has won 18 straight dual meet bouts, went 5-0 in the tournament and beat two wrestlers ranked in the top 10.

Ranked No. 5 in the nation, Jack (20-1) beat No. 6 Anthony Ashnault in the semifinals, 3-2.
After winning three matches on Thursday, Jack's semifinal bout against Ashnault ended on a penalty call. The match was tied 2-2 when the horn sounded at the end of the third period. But the refs went to a video review and called Ashnault for unnecessary roughness when he slapped Jack in the head with just one second left. The call gave Jack a penalty point, and the 3-2 victory. 

In the finals, Jack faced the top seed, Kolodzik. After a scoreless first period, Jack started the second on top and rode Kolodzik the entire second period. To start the third, Jack was on bottom, and Kolodzik worked ride time down from two minutes to under a minute, but Jack scored an escape with about 30 seconds left for the bout's only point. Jack is just the third Wolfpack wrestler to win a Midlands championship. It was the 54th annual event which began in 1963.
