Olivia Hofrichter, Jayson Arrowood Finish On Top Of Podium At 2023 John Roberts Scramble.
The Antigo Wrestling teams had a successful day of competition on Saturday, with Olivia Hofrichter and Jayson Arrowood both finishing on top of the podium on the strength of 5 victories and 0 defeats. Nolan Kielcheski also had a superb day, finishing in second place.
Olivia Hofrichter, currently the 3rd ranked wrestler in the state at 145 pounds, left little doubt that her ranking is well earned, needing only 151 seconds to dispatch of her 5 opponents combined. That domination led to Oliva earning recognition for having the most falls in the least amount of time.
Hofrichter’s quick day start with a 19 second victory over Cupcake Rolls of Crivitz, using an overhook to hit a lateral, and not allowing her opponent off of her back.
Hofrichter’s second match wasn’t much longer, as she earned a takedown via a double leg, and then transitioned to a half nelson, earning the pinfall victory in 30 seconds against Kambria Heisler of Wausau West.
In her third match, Hofrichter disposed of Grace Dexter of Cameron in 28 seconds, countering a throw attempt by Dexter to take her opponent to her back.
The fourth match saw Hofrichter secure a textbook ankle pick, pinning Breanna Buckholz of Waupaca in 25 seconds.
The championship match was between Hofrichter and Anya Mueller of Wausau West. Mueller was a state qualifier last year, and is currently ranked 8th at 152 pounds. Hofrichter needed about 30 seconds to secure an overhook and toss Mueller to her back, earning the pinfall victory in 49 seconds.
Also very impressive on the day was Jayson Arrowood at 157 pounds. Competing against Tyler Christensen of Lakeland, Arrowood used a fireman’s carry to earn a takedown and 3 nearfall points early in the match. Arrowood then locked up an arm bar, and earned the pinfall victory in 43 seconds.
In his second match, Arrowood transitioned from a single leg to a double leg to earn an early takedown against Carter Brown of Waupaca. Arrowood then transition from a half nelson to a reverse half to earn the pinfall victory in 27 seconds.
Arrowood’s third match didn’t last much longer than his first two, this time facing Jacob Smith of Marathon. Arrowood was able to counter a shot attempt by Smith for the takedown and a pair of nearfall points to take an early 4-point lead. Arrowood would then settle back with an armbar, winning via pinfall in 80 seconds.
Arrowood would continue his streak of starting scoring quickly against Laken Villeverde of Ashland in his fourth match. Arrowood earned the initial takedown, and then used a pair of turns to build an early 8-0 lead. Villeverde and Arrowood would exchange reversals. A late takedown by Villeverde would cut the lead down a bit, but Arrowood still finished with a convincing 10-4 victory to send him into a match for the championship.
In the final match, Arrowood would face Jerome LaBarge of Lakeland. After a scoreless first period, Arrowood was able to escape from the bottom in the second period to take a 1-0 lead. In the third period, LaBarge was awarded a point for an illegal head scissors, evening the match at 1. With time ticking away, Arrowood showed he could also finish strong, as he earned a takedown and the 3-1 victory in the final seconds of the match. Arrowood has started the season with 8 victories against zero defeats, showing that his current honorable mention state ranking at 157 pounds is not only deserved, but may not be high enough!
Nolan Kielcheski had a great day of wrestling himself. After a first-round bye, Kielcheski would need only 74 seconds to finish off Gage Meierotto of Ashland. Kielcheski accomplished this by countering a shot attempt and positioning himself to throw Meierotto from his feet to his back.
In his next match, Kielcheski would muscle Aidan Lang of Marathon to the ground for the takedown in the first few seconds of the match. Kielcheski would then lock up a cradle, earning the pinfall victory in 32 seconds.
In the semi-finals, Kielcheski continued his streak of 1st period dominance, earning a takedown and locking up a cradle to pin Grant Salber of Marathon in 73 seconds.
This set up a championship match between the state ranked Kielcheski (honorable mention at 165 pounds) and Tanner Halopka of Abbotsford / Colby, currently the top ranked wrestler in the state. Kielcheski had opportunities, but wasn’t able to take down the best Division 2 has to offer, with Halopka coming away with the victory. Kielcheski has also had a very successful start to the season, with 7 victories and only the one defeat.
Levi Binversie, competing at 150 pounds, started his day with a pair of quick pins, earning the takedown and immediately putting his opponents on their backs, pinning Joey Mason of Waupaca in 32 seconds using a single leg to a double leg and a reverse half nelson and Sawyer Jameson of Wabeno in 20 seconds using a snapdown to a front headlock to a cradle.
In his third match, Binversie would use a front headlock shuck by to earn the initial takedown against Derek Vesely of Marathon. Vesely would be able to earn a reversal, knotting up the match at 2.
In the second period, Vesely would once again earn a reversal, and picked up the pinfall victory. Vesely would go on to win the tournament.
Binversie came back strong against Aiden Litwiller of Cameron. Binversie scored the initial takedown with an ankle pick, and added a front headlock to a cradle to win via pinfall at 1:54 of the first round.
In the match for 4th, Binversie faced Conner Carlson, also of Cameron. Binversie scored first, and took a 2-0 lead to the second period. Binversie would earn another takedown in the second period, and added 2 nearfall points to take a 6-0 lead. Carlson would come back with a reversal and 3 nearfall points, tightening the score up to 6-5. In the third period, the wrestlers would trade reversals and nearfalls, with Binversie coming out on top 12-11 and securing an impressive 4th place finish with 4 victories on the day, with his only defeat coming at the hands of the champion.
Jordy Pregler, competing at 215 pounds, started his day with a medical forfeit victory over Travis Trickey of Rhinelander, before earning a couple of first period pins against Cooper Pate of Waupaca in 1:38 and Derek Ewald of Cameron in 53 seconds. Pregler would then drop matches against Leonard Chosa of Lakeland and Levi Newman of Wabeno, earning Pregler a strong 4th place finish.
