East Rochester's Rodney Frey walked from the podium with his third Monroe County League wrestling title last night.

But during his 2-1 overtime victory over Spencerport's Jason Grabowski in the 119-pound finals, Frey spent most of the time out of bounds.

"Both of us played with the going out of bounds," said Frey, whose previous titles came at 98 and 105 pounds. "Things were really up in the air between me and him. It was 1-1, and neither one of us could get a takedown."

During their match at Webster Junior High School, Grabowski was penalized for leaving the circle too often, resulting in a stalling call. He had led 1-0 through two periods.

But in the third period, Grabowski intentionally let Frey up to avoid another penalty. Frey's escape tied the match with seconds remaining in regulation.

Frey said he was satisfied with the victory, considering he was the second seed behind Grabowski.

"I never heard of him before but he's a very talented wrestler," he said. "Spencerport just keeps coming up with all these animals."

Spencerport placed five wrestlers in the finals. Billy Jacoutot pinned Greece Arcadia's Kevin Myra at 4:42 to take home the Rangers' only championship.

Spencerport (235.5) captured its fifth title in six years under coach Bill Jacoutot. Brighton finished second (167.5) and Fairport third (125.5).

Others successfully defending their titles included Irondequoit's Arkee Allen at 126 and Greece Athena's Chand Costanza at 98.

Allen decisioned Spencerport's Mike Marra 13-1. Costanza decisioned Pittsford's Chris Kemp 5-0.

East Rochester captured its second individual title of the evening when Matt Ricci (167) decisioned No. 1 Rob Taylor of Brockport 9-7.

Ricci was down 4-1 before coming back to make the score 5-4 going into the third period.

At 5:28 he escaped to tie it.

With seconds remaining h went up 7-5 with a takedown. Taylor scored on a reverse to take the match into overtime. Ricci scored on a takedown to win the match.

Ricci said although he was down throughout the match he wasn't worried. At SuperSectionals last year, he trailed 8-1 before rallying to win in the quarterfinals.

"I just sucked it up and didn't quit," he said. "To win, I knew I had to keep going at it."
