Timberlane's depth overflowed at the Spartan Tournament in Sanford, Maine.

The Owls not only easily won the title with 288 points, by well over 100 points, but its B team finished fifth with 104.5. The Owls placed 11 wrestlers in the finals and came away with six champions.

Timberlane's wrestling team boasts a whopping 14 semifinalists after the first day of the Sanford Tournament and is in a commanding lead in the 18-team Maine tournament. Because of the weather, the Owls were the only non-Maine team to compete. 

Heavyweight Noah Beaulieu, finally recovered from an injury, made his first appearance of the season and had a pin in the first period to highlight Timberlane's 55-18 victory over Manchester Central. Sophomore Brady Sickel had a 10-5 decision at 126 for his first varsity win.

LOWELL — Timberlane placed seven wrestlers in today's quarterfinals at the 76-team George Bossi Lowell Holiday Tournament and is in a dogfight for first place with defending champion Mount Anthony, followed closely by Chelmsford.

Missing several starters, freshman Billy Savage had a key pin at 220 and sophomore Chris Lund had a fall at 220. Also, senior Dylan Musgrave won a featured match over all-stater Cam McClure, 6-2 at 145.
