Blackhawks get first win of the season over the Trojans

GREENE – The Greene Trojans varsity wrestling team recently fell victim to the Oxford Blackhawks by a low-scoring, tight margin by a score at 33-15.

The matchup on Dec. 16, would feature just six wrestlers who actually would see mat-time, as Oxford simply ran away with the win, due to a fuller roster.

Oxford received forfeits on the night at 126 pounds, 132 pounds, 145 pounds, 195 pounds; while Greene would grab forfeits at only 160 pounds – double forfeits at 99 pounds, 152 pounds, 170 pounds, 182 pounds, and 285 pounds.
