DAY IN SPORTS: SAN FERNANDO WINS CITY TITLE.


Byline: Daily News

Somehow, San Fernando San Fernando, city, Argentina
San Fernando (săn fərnăn`dō), city (1991 pop. 144,761), Buenos Aires prov., E Argentina. It is a district administrative center in the Greater Buenos Aires area.

 - including the Daily News wrestler of the year - and changing coaches, the Tigers were expected to be tame this season.

Traditions don't die that easily. The younger players learned from the few remaining veterans, and San Fernando beat surprise finalist Chatsworth 47-27 on Wednesday to win its second consecutive City Section duals title - and the second in school history - at El Camino Real El Camino Real (Spanish for The Royal Road or The King's Highway) was the name of a series of pre-automobile highways linking the various New World colonies of Spain:

 of Woodland Hills.

``At the beginning of the year, everybody had their doubts,'' said Raphael Reynolds, who won by pin at 135 pounds. ``I looked at our wrestlers and thought we might not be able to take it. Then, as we progressed, I realized we had a chance to do this. Everything that we did today was as good as I could have hoped for.''

The other usual suspects for San Fernando, Ricky Aguirre and Raul Uribe, also won, Aguirre by pin. The biggest victory of the final might have been Louis Murillo at 103 pounds beating Chatsworth's Paul Medina. Murillo had lost to Medina in a tournament earlier.

Medina was the hero for Chatsworth earlier in the night when he beat Bell's Joseph Parra in the final match to give the Chancellor's a dramatic and unexpected victory in the semifinals. Bell beat Chatsworth 51-22 recently in the regular season.

``It feels like we won just because of that,'' Chatsworth coach Richard Carrillo said. ``I can't really complain. I'm happy. It gives us some momentum going into the individuals.''

El Camino Real lost out to Bell in the match for third place, but improved dramatically over the regular-season meet with Bell. The Conquistadores lost 38-33 after losing 62-6 just last week.
