  Canton's wrestling team breezed to a two-match sweep of Linden and Swartz Creek Wednesday night at Swartz Creek.

  The Chiefs swamped Linden, 48-18, before manhandling Swartz Creek, 57-9.

  "Our guys wrestled pretty well tonight overall," said Canton coach Cory Mancuso. "We lost a few individual matches because of a lack of experience, but I was happy with the effort our team showed tonight on the road after a long bus ride.

  "Our heavyweight, Julius Maddox, had a big night for us with two pins. I am really happy with how he is wrestling. It is a total night-and-day turnaround for him from last year to this year."
