Drake Allen claimed the 182-pound title and led Jefferson to a fourth-place finish at the J-Hawk Invitational wrestling meet Saturday at Jefferson.

West Delaware won the team title with 231 points. The Hawks crowned three champions.
Iowa City West's stifling defense prevented Jefferson from scoring in double figures in any quarter and the No. 1 Trojans routed the J-Hawks, 59-32, Friday night in a Mississippi Valley Conference boys basketball game at the Jefferson gym.
“That’s the best defense we have seen all year,” said Jefferson Coach Stu Ordman. “They are so long and athletic; because they are so talented you can’t afford to have any bad possessions and their defense forces bad possessions.”
Jefferson's Jacob Olson had three baskets in the first 10 minutes of the game and then the West High defense shut him down for the rest of the night. Olson ended the game with six points.

Magnificent. Terrific. Outstanding.
If you'd like to know how the Kennedy boys basketball team played against Jefferson for the first 15 minutes Friday night, those three words do the trick.
The Cougars raced to a 32-8 lead with less than two minutes left in the first half and cruised to a 48-36 victory over the J-Hawks in a Mississippi Valley Conference game at Jefferson.
Kennedy Coach Bob Fontana said his team cannot play any better than it did for nearly the entire first half.
Taylor Jacobson was talking to some of her Jefferson teammates Friday night after their basketball game at Jefferson when Kennedy junior Morgan Martin passed by.
Their crutches almost touched.
It was a star-crossed night for two of the premier basketball players in the Metro area, but the Kennedy Cougars fared better without Martin than the J-Hawks did without Jacobson.
The Cougars got balanced scoring and topped the J-Hawks, 54-42, in a Mississippi Valley Conference game that does not count in the league standings.
