22nd Annual Oneonta Rotary Ross Cordell Tournament a Success





Thankfully the 22nd Annual Oneonta Rotary Ross Cordell Tournament went off without a hitch this year. We were anticipating a huge winter storm to hit on Friday and last through to the weekend, but the weather decided to keep it's ugly claws in check for this year.


Thanks to the help of many Oneonta Rotarians, Catrina Truesdell, John Remillard, Bob Moyer, Bill Davis, Charlie Nicosia, Elaine Baird, Dr. Bob Davidson, Loree Allen, Lary Guzy, Laurie Zimniewicz, Emily Ernsberger, Lindsay Drake, Paul Paterson, Tom Kelly, Sam Koury, Don Ball, Geoff and Chad Smith we were able to keep everything running as smooth as possible.


Once again, the wrestiling was top notch, as always. Levitown came out at the winners of the whole tournament, BG/A (Bainbridge-Gilford/Afton) finished second and Oneonta finished ninth. Sandy Creek Wrestler, Derek Pfluger (Last years State Champion at 135 in D II) recorded his 200th Career win at the tournament.

We want to thank all the tournament sponsors who helped support the Oneonta Rotary Club and the OHS Booster Club who will benefit directly from this tournament.
