By Dean Von Memmott Sports Correspondent The Pleasant Grove Vikings opened their wrestling season with a 63-6 63-6 win at home over the American Fork Cavemen Nov. 28. New Viking coach Brock Moore said, "Our guys really real-ly hustled on and off the mat. They were all good tonight." The Vikings' 125-pounder, 125-pounder, Brandon Denboer, set the evening's tone by pinning Chance Varney a 1:43 into their match. In the 130 weight class match, Pleasant Grove's Rich Alexander found Alex Hatch too squirmy to be pinned. Nevertheless Alexander, still blanked his opponent 11-0. Anyone, who stepped out into the lobby for a few seconds sec-onds during the 135 weight class match, came back too late to see the contest's conclusion. con-clusion. In less than 30 seconds, Viking Wade Nielson took Tony Pagliarini down, then pinned him. In the 140 weight class, American Fork's J.J. Zuffelt tied the score at two on reversal, but Viking Justin Jacobs reversed him, then pinned him. A 145-pounder, Viking Jordan Sorenson came so close to scoring a fall in his match against Dan Bartholomew. After breaking break-ing a 2-2 tie on a reversal, Sorenson soon got his opponent oppo-nent in a cradle hold, but Bartholomew thrashed about enough to keep himself him-self from getting pinned. Sorenson had to settle for an 11-3 triumph. After Viking Weston Sampson pinned Chris Brinkerhoff in the 152 weight class match, Pleasant Grove's Kyle Robinette had to go the full six minutes to defeat Evan Ault 8-1. The evening's best match involved two 171-pounders, Viking Jake Rasband and Caveman Nate Christensen. After Rasband had rolled ahead 4-1, Christensen applied a cradle cra-dle hold to score a tying, three-point near fall. Rasband broke the 4-4 with a reversal, then built up a 9-4 lead. Christensen slashed it down to 9-7. Rasband soon produced reversal to win the match 11-7. Viking John Kulcher scored so many points quickly in his 189 weight class match against Jason Carlton that he won it on a technical fall. The Vikings' long streak of wins experienced a brief interruption after their teammate Teddy Gerun pinned Matt Beck in a 215 weight class match. In the 275 weight class thriller, Caveman Nick Jensen took Chris Clegg down, then pinned him. After Kawai Goodman picked up a forfeit win in the 103 weight class, his teammate Shawn Barrington pinned Ethan Ault one minute into the 112 weight class match. The evening ended with Viking Clint Spencer pinning Landon Martin at 119. At the Millard Duals in Delta, Nov. 30-Dec. 1, the Vikings tied for fourth. Moore said, "Wade Nielson took third." See the next issue for more details on this event. The Vikings will host Lone Peak in the region opener on Wednesday. crack at the Mustangs. With them ahead by just 26-21, their lead could certainly be challenged. However, after the two teams had scored eight points each in the third quarter, the game turned into a one-sided affair. "In the fourth quarter, we weren't running our offense like we were supposed to," Woolstenhulme said. "We made a couple of turnovers that they capitalized on, and we couldn't sink any shots from anywhere. "Lindsey Leetham was our leading scorer and rebounder," the coach said. "She was the only one who hit in double digits for us. She made 10 points for the night." The coach said Murray is "a very good team. They ran their offense well, and they pushed their fast break to good effect. They weren't as tall as the other teams we had played so far this year. They just knew how to control con-trol the floor. "We need to find a way to get our own offerise going strongly. We play great defense. It's just that we need to learn how to do more when we are on the offensive." Pleasant Grove's leading scorers in the game, Candace Johnson, Michelle Bishop and Ayelen Ottenelli, each made nine points. Woolstenhulme said Ottenelii "came off the bench and worked hard on boarding and scoring. We also had some good boarding board-ing from Candace Johnson." Murray pulled ahead 17-11 17-11 in the first quarter. Even though the Vikings outscored the Spartans 10-9 in the second period, Pleasant Grove continued trailing for the rest of the game. The Vikings are spending this weekend at home. On Friday, they host the Sky View Bobcats, and Saturday will see the Snow Canyon Warriors make a visit. Many boaters find that fall and even mild winter days are uncrowded and beautiful out on the water. However, even though the air may be pleasant, the water will be cold, and it can kill. According to Utah Boating Coordinator, Ted Woolley, many drowning deaths are caused by hypothermia, abnormally low body temperature, rather than water in the lungs. Woolley reported, "Cold water robs the body of heat 25 to 30 times faster than air. "When someone falls overboard, their core temperature tem-perature begins to drop within 10 to 15 minutes. The water doesn't have to be icy, just colder than you are, to cause hypothermia." Wearing a life jacket adds to survival time in the water by helping insulate the body and minimizing motion needed to keep afloat. The best way to prevent hypothermia is to stay in the boat, but should you fall overboard, remember these tips: Don't take off your clothes. Instead, button, buckle, zip and tighten collars, col-lars, cuffs, shoes, and hoods. If possible, cover your head. In cold water about half of heat loss comes from the head. Devote all efforts to getting out of the water. Act quickly before you lose full use of your hands. Board a boat, raft, or anything floating. float-ing. Turn a capsized boat over and climb in; remem ber most boats will support you even when full of water. If you can't right the boat, climb on top of it. Don't try to swim, unless it is to reach a nearby near-by boat, another person, or a floating object you can climb or lean on. Swimming can cut your survival time by as much as 50 percent. Even if it's painful, remain as still as possible. Intense shivering and severe pain in cold water are natural body reflexes. These will not kill you, but heat loss will. If you're with other people, peo-ple, huddle together for warmth. Otherwise, hold your knees to your chest to protect pro-tect your trunk from heat loss, and clasp your arms around your calves.
