HERSHEY - Seven local wrestlers won their first-round matches to advance and remain in the hunt for the PIAA Championship at their respective weights Thursday.
At 112 pounds both Athens' David White and Towanda's Cody Wheeler won their opening round matches.
Wheeler topped Jamestown's Tyler Roberts 8-2, but started out down 0-2 after Roberts had an early take down. Wheeler recovered, though, to score eight unanswered points through two takedowns and two escapes.

Q: Hi Greg. I was reading your column about the 1968 Chevy Malibu Station Wagon recently. I have a 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours 4-door station wagon and it was purchased new in Lynchburg, Va., which is about 25 miles from where I live.
I talked with the original owner and he gave me a copy of the invoice and window sticker. It has the original 307-V8 engine and automatic transmission and just 109,000 original miles. I have all service records and the car has a positraction rear, is finished in antique green paint (needs new paint), with a jade vinyl interior in good shape. It also has power tailgate window, dual action tailgate, luggage carrier, power steering and brakes and tinted glass. The car runs and drives good. What can you tell me about this car? Thanks, James E. Zimmerman, Virginia.
