Comets soar to team win at Reser’s TOC
The 23rd Reser’s Tournament of Champions, staged for the first time at Sherwood High School, may be the premier boys tournament in Oregon. It is an Oregon Who’s Who of teams, each of which enters no more than one wrestler in every weight class in an all-comer’s event that essentially determines the best of the best in the state.
Of the 26 teams that participated, all defending state champions except for 2A/1A champion Toledo, were there. (Toledo was at the Alsea Bay Classic, placing fourth out of eight teams). Four of the top five from 6A, eight of the top 10 from 5A, the top five from 4A and three of the top four from 3A were all in attendance.
When the dust settled on Saturday, Crater, which placed fourth in the 5A state meet a year ago, won the team competition for the first time in 19 years.
“Winning Reser’s is a big deal,” said coach Greg Haga. “Our wrestlers have been working hard to become the best we can be. Most of the strong teams in the state are there and it gives us a chance to measure our progress.”
Crater was one of just three teams to produce two champions. The Comets had a tournament-best seven wrestlers finish among the top six and they wrestled without undefeated junior Jaret Hickey, who missed the event due to illness.
Canby, which placed fifth in the 5A state tournament last February, finished second, 12.5 points ahead of defending 6A champion Newberg, which had won Reser’s the previous three years. The Cougars also finished second (behind deep, deep Thurston) at the JV tournament.
“We were certainly pleased with our second place finish in both the varsity and JV tournaments, but we also noticed that our competition at the 5A level was right up there with us,” said Canby coach Brandon Harms. “The biggest difference in our result this weekend was our willingness to compete freely. We have been in some tough tournaments this year, like opening the year at the Crater Duals or spending winter break in West Albany at the Northwest Duals. While we took some lumps in those tournaments, we learned to focus less on the result and more on enjoying to compete. Our shift in mindset allowed us to compete with less expectation and more enjoyment and I believe that directly contributed to our performance this weekend.”
Canby matched Crater with two individual champions. Bend, which was eighth overall; also had two champions.
Newberg edged 4A state champion Sweet Home by a half-point for third place in the team standings.
“We were pleased with our performance, in general, but have a lot to work on,” said Newberg coach Neil Russo. “Tournaments like that help expose some flaws and give us plenty to address when we get back to the wrestling room - we will do that. As always, any time you can get out of that event without injuries you have to feel fortunate...that tournament can be a grinder.”
Of the 14 individual Reser’s champions, seven also were state champions last February. At least six reigning state champions with teams participating at Sherwood did not compete.

Let’s look at the order of finish among teams at Reser’s when separated by classification:
6A: Newberg, Forest Grove, West Linn, Sprague, Roseburg, Sherwood, Glencoe
5A: Crater, Canby, Thurston, Redmond, Bend, Dallas, Lebanon, Eagle Point, Silverton, Mountain View
4A: Sweet Home, Crook County, La Grande, Pendleton, Cascade, Philomath
3A: Harrisburg, Banks, La Pine
The order of finish begs the question: are the schools listed first the favorites to win their classification state tournaments?
The answer is “maybe yes, maybe no.”
On the one hand, because Reser’s pits the best of the best against one another, it often prevents competitive wrestlers from piling up points they’d otherwise earn at a state tournament where one competes only against wrestlers from the same enrollment classification.
On the other hand, because the Reser’s varsity event only allows one wrestler per team per weight classification, it may understate a team’s overall power. Programs with deep talent, like Thurston, may qualify up to two wrestlers for state in every weight division. Both wrestlers can score points for their team.
Finally, with so many standouts missing Reser’s due to illness, injury or otherwise, the final team scores may not properly reflect a team’s strength when fully healthy.

Newberg sophomore Kiah Worthington, who placed third at 106 at last year’s state meet, won the 106-pound division by major decision over Crook County freshman Tanner Brumble. Worthington was third at 106 at last year’s state meet.
“He put together a great tournament and that match in the finals was a battle,” Russo said. “Kiah is wrestling very well and doing some things for our team that are special. We have asked him to wrestle up a weight class (even two) on multiple occasions for the benefit of our line-up - we ask a lot of kids to do that. It is nice when he gets to compete at 106 and can just focus on being his best...which was very good last weekend.”
Thurston sophomore Michael Salas Sanchez remained unbeaten on the year after besting Roseburg junior Drew Dawson, a returning 6A state champion, at 113 pounds. Salas Sanchez, who was second in 5A last year behind Aiden Nelmes of Mountain View at 106 pounds, edged Dawson, a Reser’s champion in 2024, by a slim 5-4 score.
“I knew Drew Dawson and Michael would wrestle a close match,” said Thurston coach Mike Simons. “They are both great competitors! Michael found a way to overcome a deficit in the 3rd round and made a comeback and rode him out at the end for a close win! Fun match to watch and be a part of as a coach.”
Sophomore sensation Archie De La Rosa of Forest Grove won the 120-pound title by third period fall over Nelmes.
“Archie had wrestled that kid in the finals from Mountain View at Rollie Lane, and was very confident to beat him again,” said Forest Grove head coach Guy Takahashi. “Things got interesting with Mountain View being very defensive and getting stall calls against Archie. These situations created a closer score compared to how he wrestled.”
Jeremiah Oliva of Crater, a defending state champion, won by technical fall at 126 pounds over Redmond’s Ryder Lee. The sophomore improved to 32-1 with the win.
“Jeremiah Oliva has been very dominant this year,” Haga said. “He scores a lot of points every match. He is very solid in all phases of wrestling. He just kept the pressure on and kept trying to score points.”
Olivia’s teammate, undefeated senior Joey Hutchins, won at 132 by second period fall over Dallas senior Sully Hill. Like Olivia, Hutchins is a defending state champion.
“Joey Hutchins has been a pinning machine this year,” said Haga . He has pinned everyone except four kids this year. He is fast and strong on his leg attacks. He has been a great leader for us this year.”
Canby’s Nico Yazzolino pinned three-time 3A champion Devon Kerr of La Pine with 30 seconds remaining to win at 138. Yazzolino trailed early and had to survive finishing the first period on his back, but took the lead in the third with a couple of clutch takedowns and went on to the win.
“Nico's win was not stunning to me or his teammates,” said coach Brandon Harms. “Nico has been one of our hardest working, most consistent wrestlers this season and has absolutely racked up the pins. His main problem against the elite wrestlers has been his belief in himself and his ability to survive an early flurry. He kept pushing the pace and putting the pressure on his opponent and by the end of the second round, it was evident that Nico had more in the ‘gas tank’ than his opponent did. By midway through the third, Nico had taken the lead and easily could have sat on his lead, but in true Nico fashion he worked for-and eventually got- a big fall for the team.”
West Linn senior Oscar Doces, a two-time 6A state champion, won, by major decision, a battle of reigning state champs at 144 pounds over Crater sophomore Aiden Godley.
“If Oscar walks into a tournament and truly believes he's the best guy at his weight class, more often than not, he shows everybody he is by the end of the tournament,” said West Linn coach Kevin Keeney. “Oscar had a great weekend at Reser's and wrestled his best that I've seen all year in his finals match. I believe his preparation the past three weeks have put him in the position to wrestle like he did in the finals. He won every scramble and controlled the mat.”
Bend senior Eric Larwin continued his unbeaten ways by winning at 150 by majority decision over Canby senior Matthew Young.
La Grande junior Tommy Belding got a huge win at 157 pounds – a loaded weight classification -- by defeating fellow state champion and returning Reser’s champion Gus Amerson of Newberg, 7-4.
At 165, Silverton senior Bo Zurcher, who was third in the state last year at 157, won a gold eagle trophy by decision over Sprague senior Sullivan Puckett.
Leif Larwin of Bend pinned his way through the 175-pound division, beating James Keinonen of Canby by fall in the second period.
At 190 pounds, Brody Buzzard of Harrisburg became the only 3A champion, winning by decision over James Rolla Camden Roofener of Glencoe. Buzzard was state champion at 165 last February and the first Reser’s champion in program history.
“Brody did a very good job of opening up offensively in the finals,” coach Desmond Bennett said. “He came out attacking and was able to build a good lead early in the match. It was great to see that because we’ve been wanting him to open up more often this season. He has great stuff and is hard to stop when he’s pulling the trigger offensively. For him to do that in that environment was good to see.”
Jackson Doman of Canby not only stayed unbeaten on the year when he pinned Walter Dahme of Sherwood in 68 seconds to take the 215-pound weight class; the defending 5A champion also fulfilled his goal of winning the Gregorian Award for most pins in the least amount of time. Doman had been expecting to see Silverton’s Brash Henderson, the 2024 5A state champion at 285; in the finals, but Henderson was upset in the semis.
“Jackson is a unicorn,” Harms said. “There's really no better way to explain him. He told us at the start of the tournament that he was shooting for the Gregorian award. With the returning 5A state champion at heavyweight in his bracket, that seemed like a lofty goal but we weren't putting it past him. Fast forward to the semifinals and that kid got upset, which really disappointed Jackson, being the competitor he is. He remained focused against the unexpected opponent and went out and did what he does, picking up another first period fall to secure that Gregorian award.”
Isaac Jordan of Lebanon won the heavyweight division by decision over La Grande’s Kenai Huff. Both wrestlers were state runners up a year ago (5A and 4A) and determined. Though Jordan won, 7-1, this match was action packed start to finish. Lebanon coach Michael Cox called it, “the best heavyweight match I’ve even seen.” Tournament founder Marty Reser reportedly told Lebanon’s coaches it was like watching a match between 120 pounders.
Shots and scrambles to avoid takedowns characterized the first half of the match. Jordan, a hard-working athlete who also excels as a football lineman and throwing the shot, finished off a couple of blast double takedowns in the second and third periods to get the win.

Thurston finished fifth overall and third among 5A schools.
“We finished about where I expected,” Simons said. “We were missing a couple of starters from our lineup (Sean Regas and Holton Halstead). I figured we would still finish 3rd-5th in the placing. Our secon team dominated the JV tournament, which shows our depth. The 5A state tournament is going to be a nail biter between Crater, Canby, Thurston, Redmond and defending champions Dallas!”
***
Forest Grove’s second-place finish at Reser’s among 6A schools has the Vikings thinking about history making at next month’s state tournament.
“I am not sure what that looks like at the state tournament; all I am focused on is getting the team better each week,” Takahashi explained. “We’ve got things to work on and the team has been responding positively. The coaches have been telling this team they can do something special if they just believe.”
***
West Linn coach Kenney praised gritty performances from Max Bell and Darion Johnson, who placed fourth and fifth respectively, at the lower weights. The Lions placing outside the top 10 overall, however, was disappointing.
“The bottom line is the Lions need to get better,” he said. “We have a month to do so and I know I'm going to do everything in my power to have them at their best come Districts and State. I believe our team will buy in and we will finish strong. We definitely need to wrestle more disciplined and make better decisions on the mat. That falls on me as a head coach. There are things that happened this past weekend that were embarrassing to our program and I take responsibility for that and it's my job to get those things fixed.”

Harrisburg wasn’t at full strength for Reser’s (two state champs absent) and didn’t wrestle particularly well as a collective. The 3A champs saw Buzzard win and sophomore Braxton Henager place sixth at 113, but their only other placer was heavyweight Hunter Langham, who took third. Langham, the third overall seed, was upset in his first match after having an early lead, then battled back all the way to third place.
“Hunter seems to compete at his best when he feels his back’s against the wall,” Bennett said. “Hunter always wrestles tough and competes in every match. To lose his first match and battle back all the way to third shows his resilience and competitiveness. For him to do that without practicing all week due to illness was great to see.”
***
La Grande head coach Klel Carson was excited to see Belding come up big in a huge match and echoed what Cox said about the heavyweight final being very entertaining.
“I’m super proud of them and the rest of the team,” he said. “We’ve got some health issues to get taken care of down the stretch but I like where our young team is sitting at this point in the season.”
Morris, Pense still unbeaten after titles at HRV
The 33-team Hood River Valley Invitational saw many state title contenders win their brackets, including reigning state champions Layla Morris of Mountainside (125) and Jaydyn Pense of St. Helens (170), each of whom extended long unbeaten streaks to start the year.
Other notable bracket winners were Sarahi Chavez of McKay (100), Mia Pedersen of Redmond (120), Jade Seymour of La Pine (135), McKenna Unger of McNary (140), MacKenzie Shearon of Redmond (145), Isabel Herring of Cleveland (170) and Maddie Armstrong of La Grande (190). Chavez is the 2024 6A/5A state champion at 100 pounds, Pedersen was second at 120, Unger was fourth at 135, Shearon was third at 155 and Herring won at 170. Armstrong was third at 170 in the 4A/3A/2A/1A championships last February, while Seymour is now 29-10, with 21 wins by fall.
Hood River Valley also witnessed Sofia Patterson of Lincoln winning at 105, Hadley Gunderson of Burns claiming the title at 110, Alana Troullier of Mountain View winning at 130 and Ciela Garcia of Scappoose winning by fall to take the crown at 235.
Kelso of Southwest Washington won the tournament, but the next nine teams were all from Oregon, led by La Grande, Redmond, McKay and St. Helens, in that order.

***
Knappa’s boys also competed at Alsea Bay Classics, with Sitka Myers placing second at 157; and Donnie VanGundy (120) and Camden Demase (285) finishing third.
“The boys don’t get much recognition due to the small team size and the competition they face,” Andergg said, “but they all bust their [tails] and I’m proud to coach them. This group of girls and boys I have this year really makes coaching worthwhile.”
***
Canby wrestled Hood River Valley on Wednesday in a league dual on alumni night in Canby. The girls lost by 15 but the boys won, 48-27, highlighted by an electric come-from-behind major decision by Trey Smith over the returning 6th place finisher at state.
