    Belmont Abbey defeats Limestone in home finale

    BELMONT, NC -- The Belmont Abbey wrestling team, in its final home match of the season, defeated Limestone by a 31-16 tonight at the Wheeler Center.

    The Abbey was victorious in seven of ten matches, including a pair of pins and a tapout. Senior AJ Scales, the lone senior who was honored prior to the match, recorded the first Crusader pin, as he pinned William Moss, the top-ranked heavyweight in the East Region, 2:07 into the match.

    Adam Phillips, wrestling at 157 pounds, forced Mikel Bush into a tapout 2:43 into his bout. One match later, Phil Bliss wasted no time in recording a win, pinning Greg Satterfield 18 seconds into the match.

    Other Abbey winners were Chris Neidermeier (125 pounds), Appolon Jean-Paul (141 pounds), David Hoggard (174 pounds) and Tim Stanton (197 pounds).

    Belmont Abbey is back in action Saturday afternoon at 2:00 p.m. when it goes on the road to face Anderson.
