Nickerson got the 17-6 major decision over Ryan Smith in the opening bout to give the Big Red a 4-0 lead, but Riders Zach Cunliffe pulled of an upset in the 133 pound bout, defeating Mike Mormile, 3-2.
Rider then took the lead when Mike Palma defeated Nick Bridge by a score of 6-4 at 141 pounds. The Broncs extended the lead with a win in the 149 pound bout, where Mike Kessler defeated Keith Dickey, 5-2.
Down 9-4, the Big Red got a 14-3 major decision from Dustin Manotti over Ryan Cunningham and Anceravage scored a tech fall over Dan Silberman at 165 pounds.
The Broncs pulled to within 13-12 when Doug Umbehauer defeated Mike Mackie, 7-1.
That would be the last bout Rider would win, as Dan Miracola and Jerry Rinaldi each recorded decisions in the 184 and 197 pound bouts, respectively. Pollock would cap the day with a 12-4 major decision over Peter Reid, giving Cornell the 23-12 win.
Cornell will be in action again next weekend when it takes on Harvard on Friday night and Brown on Saturday afternoon at the Friedman Wrestling Center. The Big Red will be looking to clinch its fourth straight Ivy title.
