Breckenridge, Birman perfect in 'Cats' 3-2 day at Brighton tourney

Jan. 17, 2010, 7 p.m.

  Alec Breckenridge's stock continued to rise at Saturday's Brighton team tournament.

  The freshman joined Jordon Birman as perfect 5-0 performers as Plymouth registered a 3-2 mark in the talent-rich team tournament.

  "The team had a great day overall, beating the teams we should have by large margins," said Plymouth coach Quinn Guernsey. "It would have been nice to wrestle Franklin and Fenton a little closer, but both teams proved to be bad matchups for us."

  "Alec continues to impress everyone with his 5-0 day. Jordon Birman had a great day at heavyweight, a spot he typically has to split with fellow senior Wally Eppler, who was out sick."

  Plymouth opened with a 61-15 triumph over Southgate Anderson's "B" squad. The Wildcats then thumped Walled Lake Wester, 63-18 before suffering their first setback, a 49-18 loss to the Patriots.

  Coach Guernsey unit split its final two matches: a 69-12 rout of Lutheran High North and a 51-19 loss to Fenton.

  Shadi Jammoul, Jimmy Ahearn, Brett Echols and Brendon Varner all went 4-1 for Plymouth
