GRANDVIEW — With their eyes peering in the distance the Othello Huskies maintained focus on what was in front of them as they pounded Grandview in a 55-6 Central Washington Athletic Conference (CWAC) match last night.

Four pin victories were recorded by Othello’s Gilbert Villa (103-pounds, second round), Bianca Mendoza (112-pounds, first round), Reuben Lopez (135-pounds, second round), and Eddie Garza (152-pounds, first round).

At 119-pounds Lucas Garza 20-10 decision, Joseph Gonzalez won 8-6 at 125-pounds, Matt Jordan recorded a technical fall at 130-pounds, and Eduardo Montes (140-pounds) took his match 11-4.

Matthew Melo (145-pounds) recorded a 10-2 major decision, Amando Deleon took a 18-4 win at 160-pounds, Daniel Walker squeaked out a 12-7 decision at 171-pounds and Joey Gomez (189-pounds) captured a key 6-0 match that could help him in district seedings according to Martinez.

Alberto Vargas wrapped up the scoring with a 10-4 win at 215-pounds.

The victory comes with one week remaining before Othello (8-0 in CWAC) host Selah Friday, Jan. 29, for the league title.

“We just wanted to pick up where we left off at Quincy since we know we have a big weekend coming up,” Othello coach Ruben Martinez said. “We were pretty pleased we were able to accomplish that.”

Two non-league duals are in the offing this weekend for Othello before they gear up for their Selah showdown.

“We have a good test this weekend against Riverside and Deer Park,” Martinez said. “There is no pressure on us we are just trying to get ready for Selah.”
