The pin in 2:09 brought the Brockport lead to 12-0 heading into the next bout.
Donny McCoy battled in the 141-weight class and went the distance against his opponent before taking the victory by decision, 14-5, to give Brockport a 16-0 lead. Up next was Sean Peacock, who quickly came away with a win by pin fall in 1:11, to further the Green and Gold lead by 22.
Brockport stumbled in the 157-weight class as Corey Farrell was pinned to cut the lead to 22-6. Junior Richard Mills came back and handed the Tigers another loss by winning in the 165-weight class by an 8-4 decision. The victory pushed the Golden Eagles lead to 25-6 through the first six matches. After a nail biting loss in the 174-weight class by a 1-0 decision, Brockport remained in the lead 25-9 heading into the final three contests.
