MANSFIELD — Upper Sandusky’s swimming boys were second and the girls were third Saturday in the Friendly House Invitational hosted by Lexington. The Rams boys scored 330 points, finishing behind only Lexington with 440 points. Lexington also took the girls title with 498.5 points, while Ontario edged Upper Sandusky, 299-292.5, for second.

MOUNT BLANCHARD — After surrendering a 16-point first quarter lead by the end of the third to the Riverdale Falcons, the Upper Scioto Valley boys used their bigs underneath and fought back in the fourth quarter to take the 65-58 basketball win on Saturday. The Rams start the year 1-0, while Riverdale drops to 0-2.

FINDLAY — Led by a 5-0 day by Tanner May, Carey finished 2-3 to open its wrestling season in the Trojan Duals on Saturday at Findlay. The Blue Devils topped Wapakoneta, 39-33, and Lima Bath, 47-25, and lost to Rossford, 42-33, Olmsted Falls, 72-12, and Miami East, 45-34.

NORTHWOOD — Aidan Loveridge won the 182-pound championship, and Ethan Hayes was runner-up at 195 to lead Riverdale to an 11th-place finish in the wrestling season-opening Jim Derr Invitational at Northwood.

BUCYRUS — Wynford coach Jason Engel said Friday night’s opener looked like a typical first game, and that would be hard to deny. It featured sloppy play at times, tons of foul calls and missed open shots.

MOUNT BLANCHARD — A lopsided first quarter was all the Carey boys basketball team needed Friday to earn some revenge against Riverdale 83-58 in the opening game of the 2017-18 season. Carey smartly put the ball in the hands of 6-foot-7 forward Hayden Stone early.

Even when it seemed like nothing was going the Rams’ way, their lead was substantial enough to hold on. Upper Sandusky may have set a record for number of fouls committed in a boys basketball game, but key free throws by the Rams and timely misses down the stretch by Willard helped the Rams secure their 60-49 victory over Willard on Friday at Upper Sandusky High School.

CAREY — To continue playing the sport he has loved since he was 6 years old, Carey High School senior Trey Bame on Friday signed a national letter of intent to play baseball at the University of Findlay.

NEW RIEGEL — Mohawk coach Paul Dunn said his team was just not ready. The Warriors had chances at the end, but New Riegel made just enough plays and grabbed timely rebounds to take a 59-51 non-league opening-night win over the Warriors on Friday.

CAREY — Down 13 in the fourth quarter, Old Fort made it close in the end, but Carey held on for a 47-43 victory in a non-conference girls basketball game Thursday night. Amber Nash hit a pair of free throws with 5:27 remaining to give the Blue Devils a 43-30 advantage, but the Stockaders went on a 9-0 run in just a minute’s time to make it interesting.
