Comments: Julian Chlebove’s drop to 120 leaves Anderson as No. 1 here, especially after his 3-2 decision over Tarsi in the D-11 3A team final. Tarsi also lost 3-1 to Miers in the D-11 3A quarterfinal; we still say the Harvard-bound Blue Eagle wins one of those bouts one of these days. Until he does, though, the order here seems set. Anderson, btw, is not near what he was in December at the Ironman and the Beast of the East where he was runner-up, but he’s getting better and the window to beat him may be getting narrower each week. Corriere, who won his 100th match in the D-11 2A team semis, avenged an earlier loss to Miller with a 1-0 decision in the D-11 2A team final and moves back in at No. 4 with Miller right behind, for this week, anyway. Reto and Vonelli could make a move at the D-11 individuals to make the top 5. Brown’s not far behind No. 5.
