Cruz, who pinned Jacob Montes in the third period of their 120-pound bout, was leading by just seven points before hitting his winning move. The match was tied at 21-all at the time." "I tried talking to him during the match," nervous Bethlehem Catholic coach Jeff Karam said. "He just kind of shook me off like, `coach, I got this.' He kind of showed his senior leadership tonight Zeke Moisey followed with a 15-8 decision over Jimmy Saylor at 126 to give the Golden Hawks (10-0, 8-0) a nine-point cushion with two bouts to go.
