Sharon senior Cyrus Jones has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for March 2 through March 8. Jones is the 26th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2025-26 school year and the 12th in the winter season.
Jones finished off his high school career in style, winning four matches at this past weekend’s CNESSPA New England Championships at the Providence (RI) Career and Technical Academy, including three by pin, to win the title at 175 pounds. He is the first male Sharon wrestler to win a New England title since Pete Tillman in 1995 (Meghan Weibe won a New England title in 2024).
“Cyrus is the type of competitor that wants to dominate his opponents,” said Sharon head coach Jeff Sonis following All-States. “He doesn’t even like being scored upon. He won a sectional, state and All-State title in the past three weeks without surrendering a single offensive point. The only point scored was on a technical violation — that is dominance.”
Jones has been on a dominant run in the postseason. He won a sectional, state, and all-state title without surrendering a single offensive point. Going into New Englands, the only point he had allowed was on a technical violation. The Williams College-commit capped his all-state run with a first-minute pin against the top seed in the final.
At the New England Championships, Jones entered as the top seed and continued his impressive form. In his opening match, Jones had an 11-0 lead after one period and, after his opponent got a takedown early in the third, closed it out with a pin. The quarterfinal match lasted only 1:18 before Jones won again by pinfall (already leading 7-0 at the time). His closest match came in the semifinal. Jones got the lead with a takedown in the first and led 3-1 going to the third. A reversal gave him a four-point cushion and he finished with a 5-2 decision. In the final, Jones claimed the title in impressive fashion, pinning his opponent just a minute into the first period.
