    Chadron State tops New Mexico Highlands

    LAS VEGAS, N.M. -- The Chadron State College wrestling team won five of its first six matches en route to its 22-15 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference victory over New Mexico Highlands Thursday in Las Vegas, N.M.

    With the win, Chadron State improves to 6-5 overall and 2-2 in the conference.

    “It's always good to get a win on the road,” Chadron State interim head coach Brett Hunter said.

    The Eagles will wrestle Adams State in Alamosa, Colo., in another conference showdown tonight (Friday) at 7 p.m.

    Jace Johnson got things going for the Eagles in the first match by earning a 3-2 decision over Erick Rangel at 125 pounds. Perry McAfee put the Eagles up 7-0 in the dual after a major decision over Austin Morrow at 133.

    Following a win by Highlands' at 141, Chadron State received two straight pins. Reed Burgener pinned Mariano Montoya at 149 in the second period and Bruce Zurek got a first period fall over Juan Alvarado.

    After the two pins, Dylan Fors added to Chadron State's lead with a commanding 6-1 decision over Trevor Saxon.

    However, Highlands came back and earned three straight decisions before CSC's heavyweight Mike Hill closed out the dual with a 2-1 decision over Robert Rockhill.
