Analysis: Third day of state duals begins with early consolation round, where winner must beat a semifinal loser later to guarantee top four finish and a medal. I like Chestnut Ridge here, with advantage  at 106, 126, 138, 152, 160, 170, and 182. Central Columbia is good at 113, 132, and 145, with 120, 220, and 285 being interesting tossups on paper. Heavyweight bout could be the best with two of the higher ranked kids in the state. Lions should draw a second match this season with Bermudian Springs, but who knows at this point in the tournament. How many people had Reynolds in today's final?

Ridge beat Bermudian Springs, 37-24, at the Chambersburg Duals, but remember, Bermudian was without two starters then including tough middleweight Austin Jackson.

Prediction: Chestnut Ridge 38, Central Columbia 27
