Cedaredge’s Cole Caywood works on pinning Olathe’s Kimberlin in an early round match at the 3A regionals held in Montrose last weekend. Caywood went on to pin Kimberlin and finished third overall to earn a trip to state this week.

Cedaredge finished sixth at last weekend's regional tournament in Montrose with 108 points.

The Bruins did not have a first-place match in the final round but did come away with a pair of thirds and two fourths.

Third-place finishes went to Cole Caywood at 182 after his pinfall win over Rifle's Clayton Coombs and Tylor Balistreri with a 6-4 decision over Hotchkiss' Zack Taylor in the 285-pound bout.

Sam Williamson lost to Hotchkiss' Garrett Toothaker at 113 and placed fourth while Ely Fritchman was pinned in his 220-pound match by Lake County's Aaron Medina.

In the 113-pound bracket at state, Williamson (13-14) is matched with Alamosa's Neff Malouff (36-6). Caywood will take his 20-12 mark into action against Sebastian Silvers of Ellicott (30-10) in the 182-pound division.

At 220 pounds, Fritchman (15-17) will face Daniel Jansen (23-11) from Holy Family. Balistreri takes his 16-15 record to the mat against Mead's Nick Testroet and his 37-5 record.
