Central Dauphins Peppelman Brothers

Central Dauphin superstars, Walter (47-3) and Marshall (40-2) Peppelman have both continued their wish of being State Champions in the same season. This morning in the PIAA AAA Wrestling Championship Semi-finals round, 140 lb. Sophmore Marshall was victorious with a 7-3 decision over Central Mountain Sophmore, Andrew Alton (45-1). One weight class later, older brother Walter won his Semi-final bout with a 3-0 decision giving West Mifflin Junior, James Flemming (35-1) his first loss of the year. Marshall will face District 3 foe Bryce Busler (40-7), a Junior from Cumberland Valley, while Walter will face another Cumberland Valley wrestler, Junior, Joey Napoli (46-3) in tonight's State Championship match. Peppelman vs Napoli will make for an intersting Finals matchup as Walter gets his chance to avenge an earlier season loss to Napoli.
