    McDaniel defeats Gettysburg

    WESTMINSTER, Md. -- Back-to-back pins late in the match secured a 29-12 for McDaniel, defeating Gettysburg in Centennial Conference (CC) wrestling action on Wednesday.

    Jake Pooton (Mt. Airy, Md./South Carroll) led the Green Terror (7-7, 3-3 CC) with a pin at 184. Narrowly avoiding a first-period fall, the freshman roared back to even the score at 9-all and turned that takedown into a fall with just 13 seconds remaining in the match to secure the win for his team.

    Quinn Merrigan led the Bullets (8-6, 1-5 CC) with a 2-1 victory at 149.

    Noah Malamut staked Gettysburg to a 3-0 lead with a 10-4 win at 125 before back-to-back technical falls gave McDaniel a 10-5 advantage.

    Ryan O'Boyle (North Reading, Mass./Central Catholic) notched a takedown with 41 seconds left to give him a 20-5 victory before Alvontae Drummond (Lincoln, Del./Milford) earned three near-fall points to end his match at 20-5 just three seconds before the second period ended.

    Merrigan fought off a late takedown attempt from Trey Mitchell (Lewes, Del./Caesar Rodney) to notch the 2-1 win at 149 and draw the Bullets within 10-6.

    An Erik Meyer (Fallston, Md./Archbishop Curley) 13-3 victory at 157 pushed the hosts' lead to 14-6.

    Pat Thomas earned an escape and takedown in the third period to earn a 5-3 win at 165 and closed the margin to 14-9 before Logan Yox (Westminster, Md./Liberty) just missed adding an advantage time point for a major decision, winning 9-2 at 174.

    After the Pooton win at 184, Nick Cross (Centreville, Md./Queen Annes County) made it back-to-back falls, winning in 1:44.

    Joey Bragg closed out the night, winning 7-2 for the Bullets at heavyweight.

    The Green Terror returns to action at Washington and Lee for a trimatch, wrestling NYU and Stevenson on Saturday. Action begins at 12 p.m.
