    Wisconsin improves to 5-0 with win over Edinboro

    SAEGERTOWN, Pa. -- In a showdown against Edinboro in Saegertown High School, the Wisconsin Badgers take home the 28-15 victory over the Fighting Scots, improving their record to 5-0 on the season.

    After taking a 1-0 loss at 125, the Badgers answered quickly. At 133, Seth Gross pinned Tye Varndell in the first period getting the Badgers back on top. Gross recorded his second pin of the season in two minutes.

    The fun was just getting started when 141-pounder Tristan Moran took the mat for Wisconsin. He pulled Carmine Ciotti down to the mat and recorded his first fall of the season in 4 minutes, 58 seconds, just before the second period ended.

    At 165, Evan Wick joined in on pin party in Saegertown. He took down Derek Ciavorro of Edinboro down right at the start of the match and showed no mercy. At 2:30, Ciavarro was pinned by Wick, who got his first fall of the season.

    Cole Martin at 149 brought home a major decision. In a close match heading into the third, Martin turned on the jets and went to work on Tyler Vath. When the final buzzer rang, Martin, the redshirt senior, took the 16-3 major decision.
