    TEMPE, Ariz. -- Winning nine of ten matches on the evening, the No. 5 Arizona State wrestling team defeated the Augustana Vikings in dominant fashion, 35-6, Friday night at Desert Financial Arena.

    In a meaningful moment for the program following Veterans Day this Monday, former Green Beret and 34-year-old walk-on Roman Rozell made his debut for the Sun Devils, earning an ovation from the crowd of 1,090.
