2010-2011 Preview
Head Coach: Matt Opacity (8th Season)
Assistants: Mike Berardinelli / Kyle Watson
Brick returns nine starters from last season's 15-win, State Sectional Finalist team in 2011, and with the bulk of those starters being sophomores and freshmen, the Dragons seemed poised for big things in 2011 and beyond.
Down Low (103-140): Sophomores Nick Melon and Steve Cimmino are coming off successful freshmen campaigns where they not only got in valuable experience, but they racked up the wins and each claimed District medals, with Melon snaring a 1st at 103. Brick also gets a boost by getting back talented junior Joe Paton who missed the majority of 2010 with an injury. There's also a talented group of newcomers that will step in making this a very potent bunch.
Up Top (145-Hwt): Senior Connor Brennan, the Region 6 runner-up at 140 pounds in 2010, is one of five starters returning in this group that, like the lowerweights, is young, but experienced. The sophomore tandem of Bruce Weber and Bryce Tocci could be poised for big years after getting valuable experience in the uppers as frosh. Junior Jesse Lyon could also have a big year and should be well on the plus side of .500 in 2011. This could be a very strogn bunch if everything goes right.
Wrestler To Watch - (Jr) Joe Paton
Brennan is the big name here and will be in the mix for a spot on the posium in AC, but Paton is another to keep an eye on. He missed most of 2010 after suffering an injury at the Hawk Classic, but had 18 wins as a freshman in 2009. He's healthy and could have a very big year down low for the Dragons.

2010-2011 Preview
Head Coach: Matt Opacity (8th Season)
Assistants: Mike Berardinelli / Kyle Watson
Brick returns nine starters from last season's 15-win, State Sectional Finalist team in 2011, and with the bulk of those starters being sophomores and freshmen, the Dragons seemed poised for big things in 2011 and beyond.
Down Low (103-140): Sophomores Nick Melon and Steve Cimmino are coming off successful freshmen campaigns where they not only got in valuable experience, but they racked up the wins and each claimed District medals, with Melon snaring a 1st at 103. Brick also gets a boost by getting back talented junior Joe Paton who missed the majority of 2010 with an injury. There's also a talented group of newcomers that will step in making this a very potent bunch.
Up Top (145-Hwt): Senior Connor Brennan, the Region 6 runner-up at 140 pounds in 2010, is one of five starters returning in this group that, like the lowerweights, is young, but experienced. The sophomore tandem of Bruce Weber and Bryce Tocci could be poised for big years after getting valuable experience in the uppers as frosh. Junior Jesse Lyon could also have a big year and should be well on the plus side of .500 in 2011. This could be a very strogn bunch if everything goes right.
Wrestler To Watch - (Jr) Joe Paton
Brennan is the big name here and will be in the mix for a spot on the posium in AC, but Paton is another to keep an eye on. He missed most of 2010 after suffering an injury at the Hawk Classic, but had 18 wins as a freshman in 2009. He's healthy and could have a very big year down low for the Dragons.
