Day One of the Sac-Joaquin Section Masters Wrestling Championships at the Stockton Arena is in the books and Elk Grove has a narrow 103.5 - 100.5 lead over Del Oro. What will help the Herd in Saturday's final round is that three wrestlers - Jacob Seto (113 pounds), Kalani Tonge (132 pounds) and Terrell Turner (145 pounds) - are all in the semi-finals. Plus, several other Elk Grove wrestlers will grapple for medals on Saturday.

Still alive and vying for medals are Eric Spence (EG) at 120, Ethan Brewer (Sheldon) at 126, Lokahi Tonge (EG) at 126, Roger Monroe (EG) at 138, Todd Alexander (EG) at 152, Arsenio Ayala (EG) at 170, Zack Krock (EG) at 182, Jake Bellecci at 195, Stone Airoso (EG) at 220, Austin Nguyen (Monterey Trail) at 220, and Lau Ta'amu (EG) at 285.
These wrestlers must win their first matches Saturday in order to be guaranteed a medal at the Masters. The top six placers in each weight will qualify for the CIF State Wrestling Championships next weekend in Bakersfield.
