High-Five: Eagles continue run of dual state titles

BY Kevin Hageland, khageland@starlocalnews.com
A dual match consists of 14 bouts.

But Saturday evening at Allen, the 2013 Texas High School Wrestling Coaches Association Dual State Tournament Finals were, for all intents and purposes, over after six matches as the Eagles had built a 30-0 lead over El Paso Franklin en route to a 55-15 victory and their fifth straight dual state championship.

"We came in with a goal to dominate and I think we did that," said Jerry Best, Allen head coach. "The kids wrestled real tough all day; there are 14 weight classes and we had four duals today, yet we didn't have a lot of bad matches."

Plano West's Parker Murry, Lance Cottrell commit

Published: Saturday, January 12, 2013 12:49 AM CST
The residual effects of the best season in Plano West football history continue.


This time by way of verbal commitments.

The latest to join the group were senior offensive lineman senior Parker Murry (Sam Houston State) and junior linebacker Lance Cottrell (SMU).

Murry, a 6-foot-2, 280-pound second team all-district selection, can make his choice official Feb. 6 during National Signing Day. The wait will be a little longer for the 6-foot-2, 205-pound Cottrell as he is a junior. Cottrell, younger brother of Texas freshman defensive end Bryce Cottrell, will see a friendly face once he gets to SMU though as senior teammate Mason Gentry committed to the Mustangs a couple weeks ago.

SMU was the first school to offer Cottrell.
