Wrestling/103 pounds

Virgin, an average wrestler last season, is showing signs of dominance. “He seems stronger than his opponents,” Coach Mark Calentino said, “and much more aggressive.” In his last 13 matches, Virgin has pinned 12, accidentally breaking the arm of the 13th and winning by injury default. Saturday, he won the title at the Laguna Hills Invitational, pinning Rusty Zonis of Manhattan Beach Mira Costa in 5 minutes 17 seconds, after rallying from a 6-0 deficit.
