One year removed from losing in the finals by a mere point, Mangano, in a new weight class, dominated the field and left no doubt that he could be the man of the mat for the years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Entering into the tournament as the No. 1 seed in the 131-pound division, the pressure was on. But for Mangano, this was just another tournament. He\u2019s been wrestling since kindergarten and <a href=\"https:\/\/riverheadnewsreview.timesreview.com\/2024\/02\/119023\/pair-of-wildcats-wrestlers-secure-county-crowns\/\">he\u2019s won major titles<\/a> before, including the Eastern States tournament twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is the only sport where you can literally show that you\u2019re better than the other person,\u201d Mangano said. \u201cI like the ability to dominate on an individual level. I like to win and be in control of my own destiny.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mangano opened up the tournament with a 15-0 technical fall victory against Port Jefferson\u2019s Frankie D\u2019elia (39-4) just two minutes into the match. Then he defeated Abdul-Ja Zaggout (39-13) from Unatego\/Unadilla Valley with a 6-4 decision in a match where Mangano ended up hurting his wrist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI wouldn\u2019t really call it an injury,\u201d Mangano said. \u201cI jammed it a little bit. It affected me somewhat but I just wanted it more than everyone else.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mangano then took down Justin Mullis (42-11) of Hudson Valley with a 12-2 majority decision to cement a spot in the finals against Jayden Duncanson (31-2) of Tioga.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDuncanson won most of his matches by first round pin during the season,\u201d SWR head coach Joe Condon said. \u201cHe\u2019s a dangerous wrestler. His brother is a three-time state champ and he comes from the best team in the state. So we knew he would be tough.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Until he met the man. Mangano got offensive early and kept scoring points. He was in complete control. Takedown after takedown, with some near falls mixed in, Mangano jumped ahead 14-3 going into the final minute of the third round where he finished the victory with a pin in the waning seconds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis was my second time on such a big stage,\u201d Mangano said. \u201cI lived in the moment. I wasn\u2019t nervous like I was last year. I had confidence that I could get it done. I know I belong here. It felt good to end the match with a pin.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMangano\u2019s one of those rare wrestlers that just continues to score points throughout the match,\u201d Condon said. \u201cHe can score points in all positions: top, bottom, neutral, it doesn\u2019t matter. There\u2019s not a lot of things you can do against him to score. And not only that, the 131-pound weight division is one of the most talented divisions in the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the referee called the match, Mangano got up and made a bow and arrow sign with his arms, shooting two imaginary arrows into the stands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThose were for my parents,\u201d he said. \u201cThey\u2019ve believed in me and pushed me to the point that I am now. I owe it all to them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only four SWR wrestlers have won state titles in the school\u2019s history, and Mangano\u2019s win as a freshman puts him on an historic career trajectory. <a href=\"https:\/\/riverheadnewsreview.timesreview.com\/2014\/01\/50445\/former-swr-legend-to-be-elected-to-wrestling-hall-of-fame\/\">Jesse Jantzen<\/a> is the only SWR wrestler to win four New York state titles, and was the first to accomplish that feat on Long Island. Jantzen posted high school career record was 221-3, and Mangano is currently 117-3. Jantzen, who graduated from SWR in 2000, went on to win the 149-pound NCAA crown for Harvard in 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMangano is absolutely in the conversation for one of the best to ever wrestle here,\u201d Condon said. \u201cI don\u2019t like comparing wrestlers, but Jantzen was the best to ever do it. Can Mangano get there? He definitely has the talent. He still has three years left to prove himself.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When talking about Shoreham-Wading River\u2019s superstar freshman wrestler Gavin Mangano, put some emphasis on MAN.
