Grand St. scores reversal in beating Brooklyn Tech for PSAL Dual Meet Championship; Wingate beats Eagle with final match pin for third

Deuly Espinal putting the team score out of reach.

In a dramatic turn of events, Grand Street Campus took down defending champion Brooklyn Tech by a final score of 46-27. Not only was this a rematch of last year's final, but it also avenged a Dec. 21st defeat where Brooklyn Tech was victorious 45-34 -- in Grand Street's home gym, no less. This match was held at neutral site John Bowne High School in Queens. Prior to the final, the consolation final saw Wingate Campus overtake Eagle Academy with a pin in the last match to win 36-34. 

Fresh off the exciting finish to the 3rd-place match, the energy in the gym was palpable as the two teams warmed up and got down to business. But with victories in the first three matches to take a 13-0 lead, Grand Street took off and never looked back.
