Central Catholic was highly regarded in the preseason and Saturday the Raiders showed just why by capturing the Sons of Italy crown in Wilmington.

The Raiders, who crowned four champions, finished with 174 points, comfortably ahead of runner-up Brookline (149) and defending champion Haverhill (147).

For the second straight week, the Glynn brothers, Jimmy (106) and Mike (138), won their weight classes as did surprising 182-pounder Owen Buffagna. Joining them was 220-pounder Anthony Mears. Taking thirds were Stephen Donovan (132), Nate Vachon (145) and Matt Shaw (152).

"We wrestled well but we still have a lot of work to do," said Central coach Jamie Durkin.

Haverhill, which was hurt by three ubjuries during the tournament, had three champions and they were all impressive. Ben Davoli had a 17-2 tech. fall in the 113-pound finals, Jake Nicolosi had a 22-6 tech fall in the 145-pound finals and 152-pound champ Steven Wise had a convincing pin. Heavyweight Jay Levy was a runner-up for the Hillies.

For North Andover, Ethan Ford was second at 126 and Jack Carbone placed first at 195, winning an exciting 8-6 overtime decision in the finals.
