"It's always nice to get the first win of the season out of the way," head coach Kyle Borshoff said. "We came out here tonight and every single guy on the team put forth a really great effort. Like everything else in life, winning is a skill that you need to practice and the more you win the easier it gets. We just need to keep wrestling the way we did tonight and good things will start to happen."

Trailing 2-1 through the second period against Goldin, Joe Doyle combined for an escape and a takedown in the third to close out the match. The redshirt freshman earned his first dual win of his career and his 11th victory of the season.
Zack Trampe walked away with his first career dual win tonight with a hard fought 4-3 win over Doug Zapf. The redshirt freshman scored a takedown early in the first period to take the lead, but let up an escape and a takedown to Zapf in the 2nd. Trailing 3-2, Trampe escaped to tie it at 3, and Zapf got called for stalling to give Trampe the go ahead point.
