C-NS' Austin Hartman (190), Kamdin Bembry (215), Joseph Kozubowski (285), and Kasey Kalfass (101) all won by pin.
"We got the match started right off the bat at 190, and we pinned their first four kids which got the ball rolling," C-NS coach Dave Wise said.
Bembry stepped up for the Northstars.
"Kamdin Bembry stepped up tonight because that was a matchup they wanted. They wanted to see how good their kid was. Last week, (Elijah Apps) wrestled a really tough match against a kid who was fourth in the state last year," Wise said. "He was up 12-2 before he pinned him. He dominated."
The Northstars were shorthanded going into the match.
"We had two starters out. Our returning section champ Kennedy Thomas was out. Another place finisher from last year Sean Aldrich ... they were both out of the lineup, so we went in a little banged up," Wise said.
For West Genesee, Austin Fesinger (131) won by technical fall 15-0. Logan Willis (145) won by pin. Dylan Radcliffe (152) won by major decision 12-3. Maxx Fesinger (160) won by major decision 13-3.
C-NS went 9-0 in the Matt Fedish Memorial Duals last weekend.
"I always take these kids to a tournament where they can wrestle eight, nine, ten teams in a row, and get us into shape and work on our technique," Wise said.
Last year, C-NS won the triple crown: the Class AA title, the Section III dual-meet title, and the individual title in Section III that goes to states. Wise wants to do that again.
"Our goal is to win all three of those again this year. That had never been done in the history of C-NS wrestling until last year," Wise said. "Over 50 years and that had never been accomplished."
The Northstars (11-0) travel to Liverpool next Wednesday.
