Skinny: Only the PCAC tournament later in the season will offer cross-classification matches like this in county. Eric Cabral of Class A Booker will likely go against 3A PHU’s Connor Prince in the 132 final. Jay Dugmore of IRC is ranked eighth in Class A and should be in the mix. …At last weekend’s East Lake Invitational, the most hotly-contested final was between PHU’s Anthony Agazarm and Seminole’s Anthony Parisi. Parisi scored a last-second reversal to seemingly beat Agazarm, but the clock expired and Parisi had to accept a 6-5 decision. The stage is set for a rematch. …The host Patriots have a shot at an individual title at 195 pounds. Sophomore Chance Leccese is ranked 10th in Class 3A and was runnerup at the East Lake tourney.
