In early December, Shoreham-Wading River\u2019s wrestling coach Joe Condon was named to the National Wrestling Hall of Fame<\/a>. Through his 20-plus years coaching the Wildcats, Condon has mentored more than 90 All-County wrestlers, 18 county champions, 23 All-State wrestlers, five New York State champions, 18 All-Americans, and three National champions. It was a momentous time in Condon\u2019s life, giving back to the community that raised him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s special to be able to come back and coach where I wrestled as a kid and in a community that I continue to live in,\u201d he said. \u201cI got to coach my son, my nephews, all those kids I saw grow up in the community. I have teammates of mine whose kids are in the program. It\u2019s really all full circle. All the personal stuff is great but I wouldn\u2019t be able to do it without my coaching staff all these years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a collective thing, it\u2019s coaches, it\u2019s parents, it\u2019s a full community effort to get success here,\u201d he continued. \u201cI wish I could take all the credit but if you surround yourself with like-minded people and get great support from the school district and the community, good things tend to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But even after all those years at the helm, there\u2019s always a new challenge. This year, for instance, for the first time under Condon\u2019s tenure at SWR, there are no seniors on the wrestling team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeing such a young team this year I don\u2019t want to overdo it and overwork the kids,\u201d Condon said. \u201cYou have to find a middle ground. But they train real hard and we still set the bar high and have high expectations. We\u2019re going to have 90% of the team intact the next two years. We have no seniors and four juniors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lack of seniors didn\u2019t stop the team from hoisting the trophy for the third annual Don Jantzen Memorial Duals on Saturday at Shoreham-Wading River High School, a multi-team meet that featured Cold Spring Harbor, Mattituck, Harborfields, Huntington, Rocky Point, Comsewogue, and Centereach. The Wildcats stood atop the podium among them all. They defeated Rocky Point in the final, 38-34, to the roar of the home crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team this year is led by reigning state and national champion Gavin Mangano<\/a>. The sophomore was unfazed in all his matchups during the tournament at the 145-pound weight class after wrestling around 126 last year. In his first matchup against Cold Spring Harbor, he pinned his opponent in 40 seconds. Against Harborfields, the pin came in just 36 seconds. In the Mattituck matchup, the opponent fell in 34 seconds. But Mangano saved the best for last, slamming Rocky Point\u2019s Neil Dhingra in the championship and pinning him in only 19 seconds of wrestling time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMangano has accomplished so much already, but he\u2019s never satisfied,\u201d Condon said. \u201cThe kid is just a phenom and everyone on the team feeds off of it. They see how hard he works and how committed he is to being great. He may only be a sophomore but he leads by example.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the final, the match started at the 131-pound weight class, moved through higher weight classes before coming back around and ending at 124 pounds. It was a back-and-forth match to that point and the winner of that final bout would determine the team win for either side. SWR earned points with pins by Mangano, Shane Hall (138), Jacob Conti (152), Bradley Brandt (101), Thomas Matias (108) and a major decision by Shane Cowan leading into the final matchup of the night. The Wildcats won three consecutive bouts to give themselves a chance at the title. It was down to Jake Davis and the 124-pounder did not disappoint. In the highest scoring match of the day, the back and forth battle saw both wrestlers rack up lots of points, until Davis emerged victorious over Finley Monahan, 24-16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was a great moment for the kids,\u201d Condon said. \u201cThe Don Jantzen Memorial Tournament is always a big hit in the community and I\u2019m proud of the way the kids wrestled today. I\u2019m sure Don<\/a> was looking down from above and just smiling.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
