On Wednesday night, the #28 Klein Collins Tigers travelled 4.5 miles to visit their nearest District 7-6A rival, #4 Klein Oak, for a dual match involving both Girls and Boys’ teams. Conspicuous by their absence from the Girls’ teams were Klein Collins’ star wrestler from last year, Gabriella Martinez, placed 3^rd at 126 at State, and ranked 3^rd at 126, Sarah Vanhorn, ranked #20 at 114, as well as Klein Oak’s Rylee Ferranti, a 2X State champ at 185 and ranked 1^st at that weight, Malaina Jones finished 4^th at 145 at State and currently ranked 1^st at that weight, and finally ranked # 13 at 235 is Ariana Rangel. Martinez has yet to wrestle a match this season after a very active summer, while Ferranti is recovering from a broken bone in her leg, Jones and Rangel, currently 6-0, must have had the night off. I’m not certain about Vanhorn. I do know that both teams just participated in a dual tournament last weekend, so getting your JV backups some mat time is a good thing.

This Girl’s match began with Klein Collins’ Andrea Nunez getting six team points via a forfeit at 100 lbs. Klein Oak 0, Klein Collins 6

At 107, Kamryn Quinn (4-1) and ranked 13^th at 107 lbs. is the Klein Collins transfer from Conroe Grand Oaks, stepped on the mat to take on Chloe Hanes (5-1). As a 9^th grader last season, Quinn finished 5^th at the Region 2 tournament, and ended with a 29-12 record. Hanes, currently ranked 4^th at 100 lbs., is a 2X Region qualifier, finishing 4^th and 6^th the last two years, and qualifying for State last year. Her combined 3-year record is currently 88-36.

The two wrestlers have wrestled each other before; Hanes coming out on top by fall twice, and both at the 4:00 minute mark. This time, Quinn came out ready, scoring a first period takedown with a nifty back trip in the first 0:20. After spending a good minute preventing from going to a near fall, Hanes escaped a millisecond before the buzzer sounded. Hanes chose up to begin the second. Hanes was able to turn Quinn over with a cradle, get a NF-4, but Quinn rolled through it and took control, putting Hanes on her back until the end of the period. 9-5 lead for Quinn. The KC tiger chose neutral and went straight for a tie-up, then to a headlock, and wrestled Hanes down to the mat where she ended up on her back. The mat was slapped at 4:26.
KO 0, KC 6
