Freshmen Aidan Williams  (113) and Ky Cole (138) had pins to spark Windham to an easy 52-16 win over Manchester Memorial.

Windham was just 1-2 in a quad-meet at Reading but Payton Sills was 3-0 and picked up the 100th win of his career.

LOWELL — The good ones are never satisfied.

That seemed to be the case Saturday with Lowell Holiday champs Mike Glynn of Central Catholic and Beau Dillon of Salem as well as Nick Pallaria and the Timberlane wrestling team.

Surprising Concord, N.H. has been chasing Timberlane for years but, after the first day of the George Bosi Lowell Holiday Tournament, it's the Owls who are doing the chasing.

David Hammond, who appeared to be seriously hurt last week at the Blue Devil Classic, came back Saturday to win the 138-pound weight class at the Nor'Easter Invitational at Hollis-Broookline. That helped the Astros take the team title, easily ahead of runner-up Bishop Guertin.

SALEM  —There were storylines galore Saturday at one of the most exciting Blue Devil Classics of the last 15 years.

Upsets flourished, including of a defending New England champion, there were dual titles by Central Catholic's Glynn brothers and a near sweep by the Sills brothers of Windham, an altercation nearly caused a disqualification and the Raiders nearly overtook perennial winner Concord for first.

Freshman Aidan Williams had a pin and classmate Ky Cole recorded a major decision as Windham opened its season with a strong 52-26 win over Nashua South.
