Bradley-Bourbonnais edges hosts in Reed-Custer Comet Classic
When a team wins an invitational title by 1.5 points, there usually are a lot of individuals who played key roles in helping to achieve that championship.
That certainly proved to be the case for Bradley-Bourbonnais on Saturday when it edged host Reed-Custer by a 191.5-190 margin to claim top honors in the 21-team Comet Classic that took place in Braidwood.
Seneca outscored Sandwich 178-150 to claim third place. Both squads won tournament titles a week ago with the Fighting Irish winning their own tournament while Sandwich took first place at Prairie Central. Joliet Central edged Clifton Central 121.5-117 to finish fifth.
Coach Micky Spiwak’s Boilermakers came into the event with two tough tournaments on their resume, Barrington’s Moore-Prettyman and the Mid-States Classic in Wisconsin and they took 13th place in both. Meanwhile, coach Yale Davis’ Comets entered the tournament on a high note after edging rival Coal City for third place last weekend at another challenging event, the Lyle King Princeton Invitational Tournament.
And in an ideal buildup to this weekend’s Tom Lahey Tournament at Stagg and then the competitive Class 3A Joliet West Regional to kick off its postseason, Bradley-Bourbonnais won three titles, had a second-place finish and three fourth-place efforts from its 12 participants to help it to edge the Comets, who are ranked 11th in Class 1A and are now setting their sights on what figures to be a very-competitive Seneca Regional.
Winning titles for the Boilermakers, who utilized six juniors, four sophomores and two freshmen, were No. 6 Ethan Spacht (106), Levi Greenlee (126) and No. 7 AJ Mancilla (170) while Tyler Starr (145) took second and Cameron Borneman (113), Zach Anderson (152) and Logan M. Smith (182) all placed fourth.
Greenlee, a junior, won his first varsity tournament title and led all competitors with 31.5 team points with three pins and a win by technical fall while junior Spacht had three falls to score 30 points, which was tied for third-best, and added to his title at the Mid-States and sophomore Mancilla had a fall and two narrow decisions to score 26 points and claim his first title of the season.
The Boilermakers’ coach also pointed to several other efforts that were critical, including from junior Starr, who scored 24 points thanks to a big semifinals win over Seneca’s Owen Feiner, who was the top-seed. Logan M. Smith rescheduled make-up tests so that he could compete for an injured teammate and scored 22 points, as did fellow sophomore Anderson, while freshman Borneman moved up a weight to score 16 points. Juniors Avaion Strickland (138), Aiden Plumley (160) and Nick Slager (195) and sophomore Logan C. Smith (132) also added key points and even though he didn’t score, freshman Max Fischer (120) kept the Comets from getting a pin.
Leading the way for Reed-Custer was champion No. 3 Kody Marschner (220), a junior who was a PIT champion and is 23-0 after recording three-straight falls. The Comets also received seconds from senior Ryan Tribble (138) and junior Gunnar Berg (285), thirds from junior Landon Markle (145), senior Brenden Tribe (160) and junior Brandon Moorman (182) while sophomore Samuel Begler (126) finished fourth and sophomore Seth Billingsley (120) was sixth.
Markle led all competitors with five falls while Berg recorded a fall in just 0:04 in his first match. Marschner tied for third with 30 team points while Berg and Markle both had 26 points, Moorman added 23.5 points, Tribble had 22.5 points, Tribe scored 22 points and Begler added 20 points.
Rich Township’s No. 1 in 3A Nasir Bailey (132) was the most-prominent champion at the event. A champion at Fargo in the summer and an IHSA champion at TF North in 2020 and in Texas in 2021, the nationally-ranked junior improved to 30-0 after winning his fifth invitational of the season, adding to titles at Rich Township, the Ironman, Joliet Central and Antioch. He won by fall in the title match and in the quarterfinals and claimed a forfeit win in the semifinals to finish tied for third in team points with 30.
Other title winners were Sandwich’s No. 1 in 1A senior Alex Alfaro (182) and No. 4 senior Aidan Linden (152), Vernon Hills’ No. 7 in 2A senior Jake Psaras (195) and No. 10 junior Max Acettura (285), Dwight’s No. 5 in 1A senior Dillon Sarff (138) and freshman Dylan Crouch (113), El Paso-Gridley’s No 8 in 1A junior Dax Gentes (145), Wheaton Academy sophomore Will Hupke (120) and Joliet Central senior Kameron Mitchell (160). Alfaro, Acettura and Gentes all captured their third titles of the season while Spacht, Hupke, Linden, Psaras and Marschner all won their second titles.
Psaras was second in team points scored with 31 while Acettura, Bailey, Crouch, Gentes, Linden and Marschner all tied with Specht for third place with 30 points. In a display of dominance, Linden won by technical fall in all four of his matches, which was one-third of the wins by technical fall during the two-day event.

Geneseo is currently ranked No. 5 in 2A in Rob Sherrill’s IWCOA rankings, and the Maple Leafs have wrestled well for coach Jon Murray.
“This team is really gelling together at the right time,” Murray said. “They are doing a great job of giving themselves and their team their best effort in every practice and every match.

Geneseo sent five wrestlers to the title mat and got individual championships from Anthony Montez (160) and Tim Stohl (220), and seconds from Devan Hornback (106), Zachary Montez (113) and Carson Raya (126).

Stohl won his second title of the year, having also won at Morton this year. Stohl is currently ranked No. 6 in Illinois at 220.
Moline’s second-place finish featured individual titles from Alex Schmacht (126), Kole Brower (138) and Noah Tapia (145). Brower, top-ranked in 3A, won the OWA for the lower weights after posting three pins and then a 15-5 major decision for the title over Civic Memorial’s Bryce Griffin, the top-ranked wrestler in Illinois at 138 in 2A.
Moline also got thirds for coach Jacob Ruettiger from Carmelo Cruz (120), James Soliz (182), and Trystan Duyvejonck (220), fifths from Kayden Serrano (120) and Pablo Perez (170), and a sixth from Aiden Vercautren (160).
