BUFFALO - Six Salamanca grapplers went to the Section VI S t a t e Qualifier tournament over t h e weekend in hopes of t ak ing first and moving on to the s t a te meet at Syracuse on Friday and Saturday.

None of the Warriors' hopes were fulfilled, however, as the squad came away with jus t three th i rds .

The trio of Eric Swiech (126), Steve Felt (112) and J im Quinn (215) placed third.

Swiech went as Salamanca's best chance of going to the s ta te meet. The second-seed wrest ler was upset by Rob Kearney of Williamsville North in the semifinals, 5-3. Kearney was later beat in the championship round by Ran­

dolph's Bill Young, 11-4. Swiech beat Young on Feb.

20, 7-5, to win the Southern Tier League title.

"Eric was definitely our best shot, but lost the takedown and was beaten by two points," said Salamanca Coach Rich Morton. "I was happy for Young for winning after Eric was beat."

Felt had the distinction of meeting up with Royalton-Hartland's Lou Roselli in the semis and was beaten by tech­nical fall a t 4:14. The sophomore's performance against the senior, who even­tually won the event a t 112, was praised by Morton.

"Hey, Steve took the action right to Lou and I was proud of the way he went at him,'' said the Salamanca coach.

Quinn entered the competi­tion after dislocating his shoulder on Wednesday. He lost to Rob Bandish, Sweet Home, 8-4 in the semifinal round and then pinned Roy-Hart 's Kevin Lawson in 4:08 to take third. The senior wrestler beat teammate Cary Hanson, 11-4, in the quarterfinals.

The other three Warriors competing, Shane Leder (91), Tom Mohr (155) and Hanson (215) didn't place.

Leder, seventh grader, was beat by Portville's Eric Bowen, 10-2, on Friday n igh t Mohr won ^ his Friday night match over'Clarence's Tim Ellis, 21-10, but fell to Tonawanda's Kevin Roe on Saturday, 10-6.

Hanson was eliminated by Quinn.

The Warriors last represen­tative to the New York State Tournament was Jess Wilson in March, 1986.

The winners and represen­tatives of Section VI for this weekend's state meet are as follows:

All but one pairing in the Section VI C and D boys' bas­ketball brackets were decided over the weekend.

In the D tournament, Cat­taraugus knocked off Chautauqua Saturday, 64-42, in a quarterfinal game to ad­vance to the semis. The Big Red's opponent will be the winner of tonight's Clymer-Sherman matchup. The semi­final contest will be played Wednesday with the site to be announced.

In the top bracket of the D tournament, Franklinville up­set the Ellicottville Eagles Saturday, 88-80, to earn the right to face No. 1 Pine Valley. The top-seeded Panthers destroyed Brocton Friday night to advance to the semis, 71-49.

In the C tournament, No. 1 Burgard outlasted Trott Saturday afternoon, 95-83, and will meet Salamanca Wednesday a t 6 p.m. at Erie Community College North in one semifinal game.

The other final four contest will pit Falconer against John F. Kennedy on Tuesday at 6 p.m. at E.C.C. South.

The D finals are Saturday at University of Buffalo's Alumni Arena at 12:45 p.m. The C championship game follows at 2:30 p.m. C a t t a r a u g u s 64,

C h a u t a u q u a 42 Matt Ellis hit eight of 10

field goals in the second half and finished with 18 of his team-high 20 points in the stretch to lead the Big Red to their 17th win of the season.

The defending D champions led by just three at the holf,

"We played inept in the first half," said Cattaraugus Coach Rick Feuz.

Cattaraugus opened the first half with a 10-0 burst, but then cooled down.

The Big Red controlled the boards in the second half and opened a 12-point lead at the end of three quarters, 42-30.

T h e difference in the second half was our job rebounding," said Feuz.

Scott Mikowicz had 11 rebounds and teammate Shawn Phinney 10 for the Big Red.

Chautauqua opened the third quarter in a tight zone and the Big Red responded with three consecutive three-point field goals by Darrin Daly, Ellis and Nate Young.

Ellis' 20 points put him at 899 for his career, breaking the school record of 891 previously held by now-Salamanca Coach Pete Weishan.

Also scoring in double digits for the Big Red were Daly 13, Mikowicz 14 and Young 12. F rank l inv i l l e 88, Ellicot­

tvil le 80 The No. 3 Eagles opened the

first quarter sizzling and took a 21-10 lead into the second. A 25-14 run by Franklinville in the second tied the score by in­termission, 35-35.

Ted King and Brian Wachter led the Panthers with 29 and 28 points, respectively.

Ellicottviile's Colman Roach had 39 points, including six three pointers.

Franklinville needed to beat Hinsdale in a playoff game in order to make the tournament. The Panthers now face No. 1 Pine Valley.
