Iowa will continue to follow Big Ten Conference medical protocols and the medical team will make a determination on return to activity. Iowa's dual at Penn State scheduled for Friday, Feb. 12, has been postponed out of an abundance of caution surrounding the health and safety of the participants. The institutions will work with the Conference to identify rescheduling options. "We are appreciative of the Iowa medical staff and respect the decision to pause activities," said Iowa head wrestling coach Tom Brands. "We will continue to follow Big Ten protocols and look forward to a return to training and competition."

USA Wrestling, Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee have collectively decided that the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials-Wrestling, originally scheduled for April 4-5, 2020, will not be held at the Bryce Jordan Center in University Park, Pennsylvania. USA Wrestling and Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics worked to reschedule the event in 2021. However, a decision to relocate the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Wrestling was made due to a variety of factors, including current COVID-19 health and safety guidelines and the desire to provide the ability to accommodate all of the participants, staff and fans. In addition to the announcement of the relocation of this year's U.S. Olympic Team Trials-Wrestling, USA Wrestling, Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee announced Penn State and the Bryce Jordan Center will host the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials-Wrestling. USA Wrestling is currently in negotiations to secure a new location for the competition, targeting the early April 2021 time frame. USA Wrestling expects that it will be able to finalize this arrangement in the near future. The decision to relocate the event will not impact the competitions which serve as qualifiers for the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Wrestling, as set in the approved USA Wrestling Athlete Selection Procedures for the 2020 Olympic Games in men's freestyle, women's freestyle and Greco-Roman. Updated event information will be shared by USA Wrestling as soon as possible.

Wyoming Stephen Buchanan snapped WVU's Noah Adams' 39-match winning streak (Photo/Wyoming Athletics) Another weekend of college wrestling action is in the books. Thematically speaking, the action can be described by upsets (both individual and team), some compelling individual matchups and, regrettably, the continued presence of COVID-19 within the sport. That last point aside, the triangulars, quadrangulars, and singular dual meets still delivered a phenomenal weekend of NCAA wrestling. Here are five things that caught my eye from this past weekend (Feb. 5-7) in college wrestling. The winning streak ends at 39 While arguably the biggest story heard around the wrestling world this weekend was the nation-s No. 1 at 197-pounder, WVU's Noah Adams, suffering his first loss since two seasons ago, West Virginia head coach Tim Flynn isn't concerned, according to his post-match comments. The match certainly was a strange one to say the least. No. 17 Stephen Buchanan, who Adams beat twice last year, hit a reversal in the second period to take a brief 3-2 lead, but Adams took control in the third period. It looked as if the match was over and Adams would escape victorious, but Buchanan hit two takedowns in the final 30 seconds to earn the win to make the dual 12-0. The loss was Adams' first since Nov. 3, 2019. Since the stumble, Adams responded with a fall and a technical fall in his next two matches. Odd as it sounds, maybe this loss is exactly what Adams needed. Not only does the loss take away the pressure of keeping a lengthy winning streak alive, but also it serves as a "wakeup call" prior to the postseason. Despite the loss, Adams is still a serious threat for anyone wrestling at 197 pounds. The Coal City, West Virginia native is a definite title contender and a probable All-American in 2021. Down goes No. 4 NC State Friday night, the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) treated wrestling fans to quite the dual meet spectacle in a match that was decided at the last possible moment. No. 6 Virginia Tech downed No. 4 NC State 17-16 on criterion 3.21.c. It was decided by a takedown and near fall in the final seconds of the dual by redshirt freshman No. 8 Sam Latona against No. 4 Jakob Camacho. You can relive the various twists and turns of 2021's best dual meet here. With the win, the Minnesota Golden Gophers' big man improves to 7-0, with two pins, four technical falls and a major decision. I realize that both Lee and Steveson are two of the most talented wrestlers in the world right now, let alone that NCAA. However, this is still Division I wrestling. It should not be as easy as these two make it look. They both may spend short time on the mat, but when they wrestle live, it's quite a show.

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Central Michigan wrestling team won 18 of 20 matches on Sunday in posting a pair of dominating Mid-American Conference dual victories at Buffalo's Alumni Arena. The Chippewas downed Edinboro, 30-6, and then topped the host Bulls, 40-0, posting their first shutout over a Division I program since a 33-0 win over Michigan State on Dec. 6, 2015. The victories closed a weekend road trip that started with a 21-15 MAC win at Cleveland State on Friday. The Chippewas and Vikings split the 10 matches in that dual, as CMU was clearly feeling the physical effects of a long COVID-related layoff. They showed no such effects on Sunday, stepping on the gas throughout and scoring bonus points in 10 of their victories. The Chippewas combined to post one pin, four technical falls, and five major decisions in the two duals. "I was really impressed with our guys," CMU coach Tom Borrelli said. "I just felt we controlled the pace of the matches really well, kept scoring, and in every match we were trying to get bonus points. We just had so much more energy than we had Friday." CMU won its final four duals of the season and finished 5-2, 4-1 MAC. They are scheduled to partake in the MAC Championships at Rider in Lawrenceville, N.J. on Feb. 27-28. "We should feel good about ourselves," Borrelli said. "I'm not real concerned about the message that we're sending to our competition, I'm more concerned about what we're thinking and we should be thinking right after today." CMU's Drew Hildebrandt (125 pounds), Drew Marten (133), Dresden Simon (141), Johnny Lovett (157), Alex Cramer (165), Ben Cushman (184), Landon Pelham (197) and Matt Stencel (285) each went 2-0 on the day. Stencel, who is ranked fourth nationally, recorded a 7-2 victory over Edinboro's John Spaulding, who is ranked 24th. Hildebrandt posted two major-decision victories, Marten had two tech falls, Simon had a tech fall and a pin, Cushman posted one tech fall, and Cramer won one of his matches by major decision. CMU's Mason Breece (149) and Jake Lowell (174) also won by major decision against Buffalo. Hildebrandt, Marten and Simon got the Chippewas off to outstanding starts in both duals, combing for three tech falls, two majors and a pin. After those three finished their respective matches, the Chippewas led 14-0 against Edinboro, and 15-0 against Buffalo. Simon, who is ranked 12th, posted a technical-fall win over Edinboro and then pinned Buffalo's Derek Spann, who is ranked 23rd. It was the first pin of the season for Simon, a returning All-American and the defending MAC champion at 141. Both of Simon's matches ended, impressively, in the first period. He also won by technical fall on Friday at Cleveland State. "That's pretty rare in college wrestling," Borrelli said of Simon's first-period tech fall. "He's pretty strong for a 141-pounder. If he gets out to a good start, look out. Sometimes he gets frustrated because he's not throwing (an opponent) around in the first period, but today he got off to a good start in the first period." Hildebrandt, who is 7-0 and ranked fourth, continued his dominance with two major-decision wins as he outscored his opponents by a combined 22-5. Hildebrandt, who pinned his Cleveland State opponent on Friday, has scored bonus points in five of his wins this season, including the last four consecutively. "He had to wrestle hard today to get both of those majors," Borrelli said. "He had to score late in both third periods. Normally he's really good on top at turning people but he didn't get any turns today, so he had to wrestle really hard on his feet which was good, very good." It was a big day for Marten, who upped his win streak to four matches after he won twice in non-varsity competition against Cleveland State on Friday. Prior to the Cleveland State dual, Marten had lost three-consecutive matches. On Sunday, the 2020 NCAA qualifier outscored his opponents by a combined 33-1. His two wins at Cleveland State also came on tech falls. "Marty wrestled today like we have expected him to wrestle all year," Borrelli said. "He's really, really good on top." In extra matches against Edinboro, CMU got major-decision victories from Vince Perez (125), Brock Bergelin (133) and Tracy Hubbard (157); against the Bulls, Bergelin and Cade Dallwitz (285) won by pin and Hubbard won by decision.

STILLWATER -- The No. 5 Oklahoma State wrestling team remained undefeated with a dominating pair of performances on Sunday, knocking off No. 19 Oklahoma, 24-10, in Norman before shutting out Little Rock in Stillwater, 45-0. The Cowboys are now 9-0 on the season with a 4-0 record in the Big 12. The win over Oklahoma marked the third-straight ranked win for OSU and was John Smith's 50th win over the Sooners in his coaching career. Oklahoma State now holds the advantage in the Bedlam series 144-27-10, with the Cowboys having won 19 of the last 20 times the two teams have met. "I thought we had a good day today," Smith said. "We had a solid win in Norman and then came back to Stillwater and wrestled well. I'm looking forward to next weekend when we host the Cowboy Challenge Tournament. It should be a very exciting event filled with great wrestlers." OSU got off to a quick start in Bedlam with Trevor Mastrogiovanni earning his eighth win on the season in an 8-2 decision over Mason Naifeh. Reece Witcraft followed with a 7-4 win over Tony Madrigal at 133 pounds. The teams traded the next three matches before taking an intermission with the Cowboys leading 9-7 heading into the 165-pound bout. During those three matches, Boo Lewallen picked up his first ranked win on the season with a 4-0 decision over No. 17 Mitch Moore. Following the intermission, OSU took four straight matches to separate the score and seal the first win of the day. Travis Wittlake handed Troy Mantanona his first loss of the season, putting up 27 points en route to his second technical fall of the season. Oklahoma native Dustin Plott followed Wittlake with an 11-6 decision in his first Bedlam match. After suffering his first loss of the season last week, Dakota Geer bounced back with an 18-4 major decision over Darrien Roberts at 184 pounds, before AJ Ferrari won his second-straight match against a ranked opponent, defeating No. 12 Jake Woodley in a 3-2 bout. The second meeting of the season between OSU and the Trojans of Little Rock was even more lopsided than the first 36-4 win. The Cowboys won 45-0 in their first time wrestling in Gallagher-Ibs Arena since Jan. 10. Trevor Mastrogiovanni put the Cowboys up 6-0 early with the first fall of his career over Khyler Brewer. Reece Witcraft followed at 133 pounds, winning his second match of the day by way of an 11-3 major decision over Jaylen Carson. Dusty Hone picked up a 2-0 decision before Oklahoma State rattled off three straight technical falls. Boo Lewallen ended his match in 4:16 at a score of 19-4, while Wyatt Sheets and Travis Wittlake both ended their matches early with the tech falls coming in the first period. Sheets dominated Noah Aziere, getting a takedown and four near falls to win 18-0 in 2:11. Wittlake did much of the same winning 18-2 in 2:36. Dustin Plott defeated Triston Wills for the second time this season in their rematch at 174 pounds. After pinning Wills in the first bout, Plott grinded out a much closer 3-1 decision in GIA. At 184 pounds, Dakota Geer racked up the points in a 24-9 technical fall over Zane Davis. With four tech falls a piece, Geer and Lewallen maintain a tie for the team lead in that category. AJ Ferrari joined Mastrogiovanni, picking up his first collegiate pin against Dylan Johnson in 3:15. With two of the freshman collecting falls of their opponents tonight, each of the freshmen in the starting lineup for the Cowboys earned the first fall of their career against Little Rock, with Plott's coming the first time the teams met. Oklahoma State will look ahead to the Cowboy Challenge Tournament before rounding out its regular season against Oklahoma on Feb. 21. The Cowboys will welcome No. 6 Missouri, West Virginia, Wyoming and Central Oklahoma to compete in an individual tournament next Sunday in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

CORVALLIS, Ore. -- The Oregon State wrestling team split its triangular on Sunday afternoon inside Gill Coliseum against Utah Valley and Stanford. The Beavers took an 18-16 win over Utah Valley to start the day and fell 19-16 to Stanford in its second match of the afternoon. Utah Valley opened the day taking the first two matches but a 16-3 major decision at 141 from #16 Grant Willits put the Beavers on the board to make it 7-3 Utah Valley. After the Wolverines took the 140 bout, #15 Hunter Willits joined his brother with a major decision, 13-3, at 157. An unsportsmanlike from Utah Valley at 157 cut their lead to one, 9-8. In his Beaver debut at 165, Matthew Olguin took a 10-2 major decision to put OSU on top for the first time in the match, 12-9. It was #25 Ryan Reyes' 4-2 decision at 184 and an 8-2 decision at 197 from #31 J.J. Dixon to put the Beavers up 18 to 13. Oregon State held on for the two point victory, 18-16, over Utah Valley. After falling in the opening bout against Stanford, the Beavers got back-to-back major decisions from #18 Devan Turner (133; 12-4) and #16 Grant Willits (141; 10-2) to take an 8-3 lead. Stanford came to within two after a 7-4 decision at 149. In a battle of top-15 opponents, #15 Hunter Willits claimed a hard-fought 6-2 decision over #10 Requir Van der Merwe at 157 to extend the OSU lead to 11-6. Stanford took a decision at 165 and a major decision at 174 to take a 13-11 lead. #25 Ryan Reyes battled Jared Hill to a 5-3 decision at 184 and #31 J.J. Dixon took a 6-2 decision at 197, putting Oregon State back on top 16-13. Stanford earned a pin at 285 to take the 19-16 victory. Oregon State wrestled in 18 extra matches that did not count towards the team scores. OSU won 10 of the matches. Jackson McKinney took wins in both his matches, both by decision. Riley Gurr went 3-0 on the day with two major decisions and a decision. Next up: Oregon State will close out the regular season on Feb. 14 in Fresno, California at the Fresno State Triangular.

CORVALLIS, Ore. -- Taylor LaMont, Ty Smith, Cameron Hunsaker and Demetrius Romero all defeated ranked opponents en route to helping Utah Valley University knock off No. 22 Stanford, 19-16, on Sunday afternoon at Gill Coliseum in Corvallis, Oregon. The sophomore 149-pounder Hunsaker arguably had the win of the day for UVU (2-2, 0-1 Big 12) by recording a first period fall over No. 12 Jaden Abas of Stanford (5-3, 4-0 Pac-12). The redshirt freshman 133-pounder Smith had another strong win for UVU by picking up his second win of the day over a ranked opponent by defeating No. 18 Jason Miranda, 5-1, while two-time UVU NCAA qualifiers and fifth-ranked LaMont and fellow fifth-ranked Romero both remained undefeated on the year by topping No. 26 Jackson DiSario and No. 27 Tyler Eischens, respectively. "The guys wrestled hard today in both duals. It was especially nice to see Ty and Cameron get wins over ranked guys in the top-20. They were very aggressive and dictated the pace and control of their matches," head UVU coach Greg Williams said. "Taylor also had two solid matches against ranked guys. He and Demetrius have looked really solid and are both working on and improving their top wrestling. "We fell just short against Oregon State (earlier in the day) but we were able to get a win against a very good (and ranked) Stanford team. We feel good about the performances this weekend." The Wolverines got off to another strong start in the second match of the day against the Cardinal, as both LaMont and Smith defeated ranked foes for the second time on the day. After defeating No. 24 Brandon Kaylor (19-5) and No. 18 Devan Turner (4-1) of Oregon State, respectively, earlier on Sunday, both LaMont and Smith capped their strong outings on Sunday by defeating No. 26 Jackson DiSario and No. 18 Jason Miranda, respectively. The two-time UVU NCAA qualifier and fifth-ranked LaMont started the early rally against Stanford with a 12-8 decision over DiSario behind five takedowns to improve to 6-0 on the season. Smith then recorded his second upset win of the day thanks to scoring a first period and a third period takedown along with a riding time point to defeat the ranked Miranda by a score of 5-1. With the two wins over ranked foes on the day, Smith improves to 6-1 on the year. Following a 7-3 decision from Stanford's Luciano Arroyo over Nick Rino at 141, the UVU sophomore Hunsaker recorded his upset first period fall over 12th-ranked Abas. In the neutral position, Hunsaker muscled down Abas with a double-leg takedown and quickly followed that up by getting Abas flat on his back to pin him in 2-minues and 16-seconds to give the Wolverines a 12-3 lead on the scoreboard. With the win over the ranked foe, Hunsaker improves to 6-4 on the season. The Wolverines then extended their advantage to 15-3 thanks to a 10-5 decision from freshman Danny Snediker over Charlie Darracott at 157. After falling behind early in the bout, Snediker then picked up a pair of takedowns in the second period and two more in the third to go on to double up Darracott and win by a score of 10-5. After dropping his bout against Oregon State's 15th-ranked Hunter Willits earlier in the day, Snediker now holds a 7-2 record on the season. The Cardinal then responded with a 14-3 major decision win from 2020 NWCA All-American and third-ranked Shane Griffith at 165 to make it 15-7, but back answered the Wolverines with a major decision win from the two-time Utah Valley NCAA qualifier and fifth-ranked senior Romero over No. 27 Tyler Eischens at 174 to extend UVU's lead to 19-7. Holding to a 4-2 lead after one, Romero then added an escape, a penalty point, and a takedown in the second to make it 8-2. Romero then locked up his second bonus-point win of the day with his fourth takedown of the bout along with a riding time point to defeat the fellow ranked foe by major decision. With his second win of the day, Romero remains undefeated on the season, as he ups in 2020-21 record to 10-0. The Cardinal then bounced back by winning the final three matches of the dual with wins from Jared Hill (184), Nick Stemmet (197) and three-time NCAA qualifier Nathan Traxler (285), but it wasn't enough as UVU held on to win the dual by a score of 19-16. The victory marked UVU's first win over a nationally ranked opponent since Dec. 29, 2018 when the Wolverines knocked off No. 13 Purdue, 28-11. It also marked UVU's first win over Stanford in its last seven tries (UVU's last win over Stanford came on Feb. 1, 2013).

On Sunday's victory over SIUE… "There were some real good matches today. Keegan (O'Toole) and Rocky (Elam) really came out to wrestle. They scored a lot of big points and I really liked the way they wrestled. Zach (Elam) struggled in the period in his match, but produced three takedowns and got the win. That was big for him. On the flip side, there were some matches where I felt like we weren't shooting enough. We can't do that. We're a team that attacks and we have to be better than that." On honoring the Tigers' three seniors today (Grant Leeth, Canten Marriott and Wyatt Koelling)… "We had three seniors honored today and they're all unbelievable people. Marriott and Koelling got to wrestle in the extra matches and each got a big win. Those three are really great guys and represented Tiger Style in big ways. They're all getting their Master's degrees right now. I couldn't be prouder of those young men."

BETHLEHEM, Pa. -- No. 14 North Carolina topped Lehigh, 26-6, on Saturday to finish up a two-win weekend in Pennsylvania. Both Kennedy Monday and Austin O'Connor posted major decision wins to help Carolina to victory. After Lehigh took the match at 125 pounds, Joe Heilmann scored a 5-3 win at 133 pounds to erase the Lehigh lead in the team score, an edge that the Tar Heels would maintain for the rest of the way. No. 11 Zach Sherman had a tight match with Lehigh's Brandon Paetzell at 141 pounds, but used a gritty third period to win, 1-0, leading into the match at 149 pounds. There, top-ranked Austin O'Connor posted his second major-decision victory of the weekend. Against Jimmy Hoffman, O'Connor opened up in the second and third periods to win, 16-4. The Tar Heels continued their run at the middleweights with Josh McClure at 157 pounds. The Tar Heel redshirt senior topped Lehigh's Luca Frinzi, 5-1, to finish up a two-win weekend. At 165 pounds, Monday worked fast in the first period to open up a lead against Brian Meyer. He shot out to an early lead and never looked back, good for a 10-2 major decision - the second UNC bonus-point win of the night. Clay Lautt and Devin Kane won via decision in 174 and 184 respectively before Max Shaw notched an impressive win over two-time NCAA qualifier Jake Jakobsen at 197 pounds. The Tar Heel redshirt freshman leaned on two first-period takedowns to wrap up a 5-3 decision. Lehigh's No. 5 Jordan Wood took the heavyweight bout over Brandon Whitman, 8-2, at heavyweight, but the early UNC dominance proved to be enough, good for a 26-6 win over Lehigh in Bethlehem. Carolina is back on the mat next Saturday in Carmichael Arena against Virginia to wrap up its dual meet season. Follow @uncwrestling on Twitter for full updates surrounding the team.

LARAMIE, Wyo. -- Back-to-back pins by Sun Devil wrestlers senior Kordell Norfleet (197) and redshirt freshman Cohlton Schultz (HWT) led No. 7 Arizona State Wrestling (2-2, 1-0 Pac-12) to a 29-19 victory over No. 25 Wyoming (3-3, 1-1 Big 12) Saturday afternoon. "Overall it was a good day for our Sun Devils. I really liked how Crooks and Norfleet wrestled today. They came out with intensity, scored a lot of points, and pushed the action," head coach Zeke Jones said. "Getting bonus points was the difference as well. Guys like Courtney, Crooks, and Schultz helped pick up the pace for the team." Following the back-to-back pins, No.4 Brandon Courtney (125) earned a quick takedown and a four-point near fall on his way to defeating Brendon Garcia in a 14-2 major decision victory to put the Sun Devils up 16-9 on the Cowboys. ASU wrestlers combined for 24 takedowns on the day with nine coming from senior Cory Crooks (149) during his 19-9 major decision win over Jaron Jensen in the second to last match. "Sometimes it can be difficult to win against a top-25 team without two starters and forfeiting a weight, but they decided to pick up the slack and that was the difference in today's dual," said Jones. Jacori Teemer and Trey Munoz were absent in the victory over the Cowboys. ASU and Wyoming began the match at the 174 pound weight class between Austin Clayton and No. 17 Hayden Hastings, with Hastings claiming a quick pin on Clayton. Senior Cade Belshay (184) stepped onto the mat against No. 22 Tate Samuelson for a scoreless first period. Belshay earned an escape point to put himself up 1-0, but Samuelson would answer right back in the third to tie. The two battled it out and ultimately, Belshay scored a two-point takedown before the referee would review his own call and reversed his decision, forcing the bout to go into overtime. An escape point was awarded to Samuelson in the remaining seconds of the match to give the Cowboys a second victory. Down by nine points in the team dual, the Sun Devils' momentum was at the helm of Norfleet and in 1:43 he silenced the crowd by pinning Cowboy Stephen Buchanan, putting up six points for ASU on the board.

For the second time in as many weeks, the 21st-ranked Navy wrestling team (4-1, 1-0 EIWA) shut out its opponent, dealing George Mason (0-3) a 44-0 loss Friday evening at Alumni Hall. Navy's shutout comes on the heels of its 37-0 victory over Cleveland State last Saturday. It's the first time Navy has recorded back-to-back shutouts since the 1962-63 season when the Mids blanked Hofstra 24-0 and followed up with a 30-0 win over Virginia Tech. The evening began with a special video tribute from the family members of Navy's 13 senior wrestlers and support members who made their final appearance at Alumni Hall. Senior 125-pound Logan Treaster set the tone for the Mids by capturing a 9-0 major decision over Josh Jones in the first bout of the night. Treaster was one of eight Navy wrestlers to record bonus-point victories en route to what marked the program's most lopsided win since defeating Delaware Valley 49-0 on Nov. 4, 2017. The Mids earned a pair of victories by way of decision, along with four major decisions and five tech falls, while senior Dean Caravela (174) recorded the team's lone pin of the night at 4:58 against Paul Pierce. Senior team captain Cody Trybus (141) and classmate Casey Cobb (149) remain unbeaten in dual action this season with a 5-0 record, while rookie David Key (184) is now 4-0 and Val Park (157) is 2-0. Navy, who has shut out George Mason in each of the last two matches wrestled in Annapolis (43-0 on Feb. 6, 2018), now leads the series against the Patriots 12-0. Meanwhile, after opening the season with a 22-14 loss to then-#14 Pitt, Navy has won four-straight duals and has outscored those four opponents 143-12 (Clarion 41-3, Lehigh 21-9, Cleveland State 37-0, George Mason 44-0). Navy returns to action next Friday when it makes just its second road trip of the season, traveling to West Point, N.Y. to face service academy rival Army. Part of the Army-Navy Star Series presented by USAA, the Army-Navy wrestling match is slated for a 6:00 pm start and will be streamed online. The Mids own a 49-10-5 series advantage against the Black Knights, but are looking for their first win in the series since defeating Army 19-17 in Annapolis on Feb. 20, 2016. The last time Navy upset the Black Knights on their home mat was Feb. 24, 2013 in a 22-10 win.

Sam Latona won in the final match to give Virginia Tech the victory (Photo/Virginia Tech Athletics) BLACKSBURG -- Virginia Tech wrestling defeated NC State 17-16, criterion 3.21.c after a takedown and near fall in the final seconds of the dual by redshirt freshman Sam Latona. With the No. 8 Hokies trailing the No. 3 Wolfpack 16-13 going into the final matchup at 125 pounds, eighth-ranked Sam Latona stunned the fourth-ranked Jakob Camacho at the buzzer to not only steal the match, but the night. Latona's takedown with seconds left tied the meet at 16, but it was the near fall at the very end that put the Hokies ahead on the third criteria, 49-48 in total match points. With the win, the Hokies clinch at least a share of the ACC Dual Meet Championship and are the only undefeated ACC team remaining. This is the second time in as many seasons that Tech has knocked off the No. 3 team in the country after defeating third-ranked Ohio State on Nov. 17, 2019. MATCH HIGHLIGHTS Latona's win over Camacho was the first of his career over a top-5 opponent. The Alabaster, Alabama native is now 7-0 on the season and is 2-0 against ranked opponents. In what is seeming automatic, Korbin Myers got a major decision win over a ranked opponent Friday night with a 13-5 victory over No. 13 Jarrett Trombley. The eighth-ranked 133-pounder in the country has now knocked off the No. 11, 12 and 13 wrestlers by major decision in three straight weeks. At 149 pounds, Bryce Andonian claimed an important decision over Ed Scott, winning 9-5 and grabbing three team points for the Hokies. The sophomore is now 24-7 in his career and 14-4 in dual matches. Mekhi Lewis kept his winning streak alive and pushed it to 27 straight matches in a 5-0 shutout over No. 15 Thomas Bullard. Lewis is the only Hokie at 8-0 on the season and now has three wins over ranked opponents on the year. In the highest-ranked matchup of the night, No. 2 Hunter Bolen defeated No. 4 Trent Hidlay at 184 pounds for the third time in his career. Bolen beat Hidlay 2-1 Friday night, same score as the 2020 ACC Championship, to move to 3-0 vs. Hidlay without surrendering a takedown.
