CHESHIRE — Things are getting better.

Heading into Saturday’s River Valley Invitational wrestling tournament, the Fairland Dragons had seven wrestles place in meets this season.

Now they have eight.

The Dragons had four wrestlers place individually at River Valley including two first place finishes.

Mike Evans claimed first place as he went 5-0 on the day. Chris Jackson also claimed first place as he went unbeaten in the 135-pound class.

“Chris really came around and did a great job,” Fairland coach Chuck Wentz said. “All the kids did a nice job.”

Chuck Wentz II was second at 112 with a 4-1 record while heavyweight Chad Kilgore was third as he went 3-2.

“Overall it was a good day,” coach Wentz said. “That was the best we wrestled all year. We’re starting to understand the system now.”

Team standings in the round-robin meet were:

1. Vinton County, 2. Gallipolis, 3. Wellston, 4. Waterford, 5. Fairland, 6. River Valley.

Fairland hosts Meigs and Wahama, W.Va., at 6 p.m. Wednesday in a tri-match.
