    Binghamton picks up seventh straight win

    VESTAL, N.Y. -- The Binghamton wrestling team recorded their seventh straight win after taking a pair of EIWA wins over Drexel and Hofstra in front of 271 fans Sunday afternoon. Head coach Kyle Borshoff's squad rallied for a 21-20 electric win over Drexel before handling Hofstra 30-14.

    "I think the guys are doing an awesome job," Borshoff said. "We keep getting a little better everyday. We just need to keep focusing on fine-tuning the little things and I think we're going to have a good finish to the regular season and look good rolling into the championships."
