Levin Takes Home County Wrestling Crown

Millers place 13th overall in tournament

 

Simon Levin looked like a man on a mission on Saturday at the annual Essex County Wrestling Tournament. The 160 pounder earned three pins and a technical fall on the way to his first county championship at Richard J. Codey Arena in West Orange.

Dylan Pollock (126) reached the semifinals before falling to Mike Marotti, 7-2. Pollock rebounded to take third in the tournament, defeating Nutley's Stephen Scuttaro in the third/fourth bout.

Millburn scored 56 points as a team, good enough for 13th place. Nutley was the overall winner.

Simon Levin: 1st place 160 pounds

Dylan Pollock: 3rd place 126 pounds
