ERWIN -- Senior Charlie Mills returned to the lineup, provided some energy and Charles B. Aycock squeezed past Triton, 46-33, in Eastern Carolina 3-A Conference action Wednesday evening.

Mills, who has dealt with back issues most of the season, pinned the Hawks' Jason Bryant at 138 pounds.

"Charlie's return to the lineup was key for us tonight," CBA head coach Marc Peck said.

The Golden Falcons held a 6-4 edge in contested matches. Jacob Dickenson (120 pounds), Khaleil Owens (160) and Ryan Morton (195) each pinned their respective opponent. Daniel Romo and Jaquan Walker each logged a technical fall at 132 and 145 pounds, respectively.

Aycock's Blake Davis and Zack Howard each received a forfeit.

"It was an excellent night for us as it puts us in the driver's seat for the state dual playoffs," Peck said.

The Golden Falcons (24-4 overall, 3-1 ECC) return to the match tonight for a non-conference tri-meet at Northern Nash. Future ECC foe New Bern will also compete.
