Croton Beats Westlake, Wins League Wrestling Title

THORNWOOD, N.Y. -- David Occhipinti and Tommy Schultz powered Croton to a 52-24 win over host Westlake in a Conference II League A wrestling match Tuesday.

The Tigers won the league title with a 4-0 record and improved to 18-8 this season.

“This is a well-deserved accomplishment for this team partly because two teams in our league are Division 1 schools -- Ossining and Byram Hills,” said Croton coach Sam Occhipinti, who is David's father. “This has been a team goal for us since the beginning of the season.” David Occhipinti, who earlier this season became Croton’s all-time win’s leader, pinned his opponent in the 132-pound match to close out the day. Schultz scored a major decision in the 106-pound bout. Croton 52, Westlake 24
