    The No. 10 American University wrestling team won seven of 10 matches Sunday en route to a 30-10 victory over Ohio. The win is American's sixth straight and pushes its overall record to 12-4.

    The Eagles won six straight bouts to open the dual, beginning with a 10-7 decision for No. 20 Nick Arujau over Gabe Ramos at 125 lbs. 133-pounder Kevin Tao picked up a 5-0 decision before No. 13 Matt Mariacher defeated #20 Germane Lindsey at 141 lbs., 4-2.

    No. 11 Ganbayar Sanjaa kept American's streak alive by pinning Darrin Boing at the 2:15 mark of the 149 lbs. match. At 157 lbs., No. 1 Steve Fittery recorded a fall over Casey Gordon at 6:26 and Patrick Graham made it six in a row for the Eagles with an 8-2 decision over 165-pounder Steve Wilson.

    Ohio bounced back with wins at 174 lbs., 184 lbs. and 197 lbs. before No. 6 Ryan Flores closed out the day with a pin of No. 20 Jeremy Johnson at the 2:48 mark.
