It was just a matter of survival for Pentucket. Wait until the lightweight matches started and the Sachems would be OK.

And that's what happened last night as the meet started at 160 pounds and Andover took four of the first six classes. But 113-pounder Tom Funk started a run of seven straight Pentucket victories en route to a 43-21 Sachem triumph.

"We're a little stronger in the lower weights," said Pentucket coach Dennis Puleo. "We just had to be patient."

Josh Wesolowski had a definitive win at 120, trailing one of the Warriors' best before executing a reversal that turned into a pin late in the second period.

"That was the swing match of the night," said Puleo.

Chris Croteau's first-period pin at 145 locked up the Sachem victory.
