PHILADELPHIA, Pa. -- The Binghamton wrestling team rallied past Drexel, 16-15, Friday night. Frankie Garcia, Vincent DePrez, Jack McKeever, Steve Schneider, and Mark Tracy were all victorious for the Bearcats in the Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association (EIWA) match at the Daskalakis Athletic Center.

BUFFALO, NY -- The University at Buffalo, The State University of New York wrestling team stunned 21st-ranked Old Dominion, 19-15, in a Mid-American Conference dual at Alumni Arena on Friday night. It was the Bulls first MAC dual win since 2013 and first win over a ranked opponent since defeating #12 Nebraska in 2010. "This win was huge for the program," head coach John Stutzman said. "We've had a lot of firsts this year. We beat Gardner-Webb for our first home dual win in a long time. Now we got our first MAC win in a long time. Getting these firsts is good for us. I think it will give our guys a little more confidence that they can do it." Starting at 157, Tim Schaefer earned a two-point takedown early in overtime to win the opening match, 6-4, over Devin Geoghegan and set the tone for the evening. Schaefer improved to 6-10 on the season with the victory. After Old Dominion tied the dual at 3, Muhamed McBryde earned a late takedown in the third period to pull ahead of Brooks Climmons for a 5-4 decision. McBryde evened his record at 6-6 on the year. The marathon match of the dual went to James Benjamin. The UB junior earned an escape in the fifth overtime and didn't allow a point in the sixth overtime to win the match, 3-2. It was Benjamin's 12th victory of the season and put the Bulls ahead to stay, 9-6. Jake Gunning extended the UB lead to 13-6 with a dominant 14-3 major decision over Andrew Snyder. Gunning continued to wrestle well, winning his fourth match in his last five duals, including a major decision, a tech fall and a pin. The Bulls caught a break when Old Dominion's Emilion Saavedra, ranked 13th in the nation, was injured in warm ups and had to forfeit his match to Bryan Lantry. It gave six points to the Bulls and extended their lead to 19-9. The Monarchs won the final two matches of the evening, but it wasn't enough as the Bulls held on for the four-point victory. UB will remain at home and face another ranked opponent, #23 Ohio, on Sunday at 2 pm at Alumni Arena.

LANCASTER, Pa. -- Four Crimson grapplers pinned their opponents, as the Harvard wrestling team defeated Franklin & Marshall by a team score of 32-18 Friday afternoon. The Crimson improves to 3-2 and 1-1 in the EIWA with the victory, while the Diplomats fall to 3-10 and 0-6. With Harvard trailing, 6-0, Jeffrey Ott got the Crimson on the scoreboard by pinning Scott Stevens just 44 seconds into their match at 133 lbs. At 141, No. 7 Todd Preston dropped his first dual match of the year, as No. 15 Rick Durso held on a for a 2-0 decision, giving the Diplomats a 9-6 edge.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- Despite temperatures hovering in the 20s and the threat of blizzard conditions bearing down on the Mid-Atlantic Region, the Navy wrestling team focused on the conditions within Alumni Hall on Friday afternoon where they dealt in-state rival Maryland a 24-18 loss. The Mids won six bouts and featured three bonus-point victories en route to winning their fourth consecutive match against the Terrapins. The red hot Mids are now 8-1 in dual action this season, winning three in a row. "On behalf of the Navy wrestling program, I want to thank Director of Athletics Chet Gladchuk, Superintendent Admiral Carter and the Senior Leadership Team for their unwavering support of athletics and allowing us to wrestle against one of our program's long-time opponents today in the University of Maryland," said Navy head wrestling coach Joel Sharratt. "The behind-the-scenes effort by my staff and our incredible midshipmen resulted in a great team victory for the Academy and our wrestling program. Sophomore Brant Leadbeter (Owings, Md.) gave Navy an early 3-0 advantage by way of a 10-6 victory over Michael Beck at 125 pounds. Leadbeter held the lead for the better part of the match, but a four-point near fall to open the third period helped seal the win in what was his third dual victory of the season. "It was great to get out of the gate with a completive win at 125," said Sharratt. "Brant has been working so hard and it was good to see him break through with today's win." Navy, though, would fall behind in the match, 6-3, after two hard-fought matches at 133 and 141 pounds. After falling behind 5-2 to the nation's 16th-ranked 133-pounder Geoffrey Alexander, Navy sophomore Zack Davis (Granger, Ind.) scrambled in the closing 20 seconds to get within a point thanks to a takedown. Davis, however, would be unable to get Alexander on his back and more than four minutes of riding time by the Terp gave Alexander the two-point victory (6-4). Meanwhile, rookie 141-pound Nicholas Gil (Crystal Lake, Ill.) dropped a 3-2 decision in the first tie breaker. Gil looked as though he would be able to ride out Maryland redshirt junior Billy Rappo, but Rappo was able to take advantage of a Gil mistake and get the reversal with eight seconds remaining in the match to post the 3-2 decision. The Mids rallied with back-to-back wins by sophomores Corey Wilding (Pittsburgh, Pa.) and Drew Daniels (Overland Park, Kan.) at 149 and 157 pounds, respectively. Wilding trailed Wade Hodges in his match with under 1:30 left in the match, but was able to throw his Terrapin foe to the mat for the go-ahead takedown before pinning Hodges with 58 seconds left in the match. It was Wilding's third win this season by fall and the first time Hodges has been pinned this year. "Corey is consistent competitor and his battle today embodied line to line, whistle to whistle and an expect to win attitude in competition." Daniels gave Navy a 12-6 advantage in what was one of his best performances of his young career. The second-year starter scored the first points of the match and never looked back as he put together four takedowns en route to a 10-4 victory over Maryland redshirt senior Lou Mascola at 157 pounds. "Drew came out strong against a top-20 competitor and showed everyone in attendance what he is capable of." The Terps came storming back as freshman Brendan Burnham pinned Navy team captain John Keck (Wading River, N.Y.) at the 5:41 mark. Though an active match, both wrestlers struggled to reap the rewards of any shots as the match remained scoreless going into the third period. Keck surrendered the optional escape to Burnham to start the final stanza, but Burnham eventually was able to get Keck on the ground for the win and pulled the Terps even with the Mids at 12-all. Navy's 1-2-3 punch once again was responsible for the knockout as Jadaen Bernstein (Glen Gardner, N.J.), Mathew Miller (Edgewood, Md.) and Michael Woulfe (Oak Park, Ill.) prevailed in their matches to sew up the victory for the Mids. Bernstein, ranked 18th at 174 pounds, recorded five takedowns, two reversals and a two-point near fall to post a 22-8 major decision over Maryland redshirt senior Josh Snook. It was Bernstein's 25th win of the season and 49th of his career. Miller, ranked 15th at 184 pounds, stepped up and was just as aggressive as his teammate, totaling five takedowns, two four-point near falls and a reversal en route to a 22-4 tech fall with 39 seconds left in his bout against freshman Jaron Smith. As the nation's No. 2-ranked wrestler in wins by fall, there was no doubt the two-time NCAA qualifier was looking for his 12th pin of the season. After falling behind 3-2 in his match against redshirt freshman Garrett Wesneski, Woulfe regrouped and held a 5-3 decision at the end of the first and rode out his Maryland foe the entire second period. He continued to dominate Wesneski in the final period and went on to build nearly three minutes of riding time en route to posting a 9-4 victory. It marked the third straight match in which Woulfe has secured the match victory and the fourth time this season. "The `Iron Curtain' validated itself yet again and we see teams trying to overcome the points these three athletes are putting on the board now. It's exciting to watch Bernstein grinding his opponents down, Miller constantly working for a pin and Woulfe attacking from all angles and positions." Maryland trimmed the final deficit to six after redshirt sophomore Dawson Peck picked up the win in just over a minute against Navy sophomore heavyweight Nick Mabry (New Braunfels, Texas). Navy was scheduled to travel to North Carolina on Sunday to face the 14th-ranked Tar Heels, but that match has been postponed due to the weather. Instead, Navy will return to the match next Saturday when it travels to Lexington, Va. to take part in the annual All-Academy Championship hosted by VMI.

Carlton Haselrig has received numerous honors for his wrestling career: Six-time NCAA heavyweight champ. Voted one of the fifteen greatest NCAA wrestlers of all time. Member of numerous halls of fame. Now the legendary mat champ who went on to a professional football career with the Pittsburgh Steelers has been honored by his hometown of Johnstown, Pa. which declared this past Tuesday to be Carlton Haselrig Day. Carlton Haselrig The honor came just days before Haselrig's 50th birthday on Friday, Jan. 22 ... and less than six months until he is to be welcomed as a Distinguished Member of the National Wrestling Hall of Fame in Stillwater, Okla. this June. As heavyweight at the University of Pittsburgh-Johnstown, Haselrig holds the distinction of being the only individual to win six NCAA titles in wrestling, claiming three championships in NCAA Division II (where Pitt-Johnstown normally competed) in 1987-1989, then three times in Division I those same years. (Back then, Division II and III champs qualified to compete at the Division I championships that same year.) Haselrig compiled a career record of 143-2-1 at UPJ, including an NCAA record of 122 consecutive matches without a loss. In 2005, Haselrig was one of fifteen named to the NCAA 75th Anniversary team as one of the greatest college wrestlers since 1928, joining other greats such as Dan Hodge, Dan Gable, John Smith and Cael Sanderson. Haselrig won a 1984 PIAA (Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association) state wrestling title on his own because the Johnstown High School didn't have a team at the time. That situation has been rectified ... and, in fact, Haselrig was honored at a dual meet between Greater Johnstown and Richland, held at the Garfield Gymnasium at Johnstown Middle School, home to the Trojan high school wrestling team. A banner honoring Haselrig was unveiled in the gym. The mat great knew he would be honored before the dual, but did not know in advance that the City of Johnstown had declared Tuesday to be Carlton Haselrig Day. "It left me speechless," said Haselrig, who has returned to Johnstown to help coach football and wrestling at the high school. "I didn't know all that was going to happen. I'd seen some posters up, but I didn't know I'd be honored in that fashion. I'm totally honored and lost for words." Those honoring the heavyweight great made a point of acknowledging Haselrig's return to his hometown to impart his knowledge and experience with the community. A proclamation from Johnstown Mayor Frank Janakovic stated Carlton Haselrig Day was "in recognition of his many accomplishments and for being an inspiration to the students at Greater Johnstown School District and the citizens of Johnstown." "He's come back home to share all of his expertise and excellence and tutelage with all of the coaches and players here at Johnstown," said Tony Penna Jr., Greater Johnstown's athletic director. "For that, we can't thank him enough." Pat Pecora, long-time, legendary Pitt-Johnstown wrestling coach, also acknowledged Haselrig's involvement with his high school alma mater. "It's good to see him at this point in his life, where he's back in with his community as a coach, as a mentor, that all of these men and women are looking up to in this Johnstown area," Pecora said. "He's very good at that role." "If anybody deserves a day after him, it's Carlton Haselrig," Pecora continued. "He's truly, truly someone special who accomplished some amazing things. As we used to say, the amazing Carlton Haselrig. Congratulations, Carlton."

Cowley College has taken the first step in possibly adding an intercollegiate wrestling program. The board of trustees at the two-year college, located in Arkansas City, Kan. south of Wichita, approved the feasibility study to decide if adding wrestling to the school's programs would be viable, the Ark City News reported. The study, which will be conducted by college administrators, will also look at academics and activities as well as athletic programs already in place. The board plans to have the study completed sometime in the fall. In response to a fellow trustee's concerns about spending money in light of declining enrollment, Trustee Jolynn Foster said the purpose of the feasibility study was to address those concerns, adding, "If we were going to get into another program I think wrestling would probably be the cheapest to add." Trustee Bob Juden said he supported the study and that adding wrestling to the college's programs would bring in more Arkansas City students. "Look around the room," Juden said, taking note of the crowd of Ark City High School wrestlers in attendance at the meeting. "If you can get these men to come to Cowley, that would be great." Trustee Jim Ramirez told the board many community colleges and faith-based schools are looking to add wrestling to their athletics programs. Ramirez also told the board the Ark City Take Down Club does have money earmarked to help Cowley start the wrestling program. He said he would have representatives from that group speak with college administration while they are conducting the study. Cowley Community College got its start in 1922 as the Arkansas City Junior College. For the first 30 years of its existence, the school was located in the basement of the Arkansas City High School. The school gained its own campus in 1950, and was renamed Cowley County Community College and Vocational-Technical School in 1965. According to the school's website, Cowley has approximately 5,000 students. Cowley is a member of the National Junior College Athletic Association. Men's sports include baseball, basketball, cross country, track and field, golf, soccer, tennis, and spirit squad. Women's sports include softball, basketball, cross country, track and field, volleyball, tennis, soccer, spirit squad, and dance line. Cowley's teams are the Tigers.

The first round of the best-of-three series for the women's special wrestle-off for the Pan American Olympic Games Qualifying Tournament was held in the Dan Gable Wrestling Complex in Carver-Hawkeye Arena at 10:00 a.m. on Friday. Three weight classes are being contested today. At 53 kg/116.5 pounds, 2015 World champion and three-time World medalist Helen Maroulis of the Sunkist Kids opened up her offense quickly, and scored a 10-0 technical fall in the first period over 2015 World Team member Whitney Conder of the U.S. Army WCAP at the 2:40 mark. Maroulis opened with a takedown and gutwrench for a 4-0 lead, then added three more takedowns for the margin of victory. At 58 kg/128 lbs., 2015 World Team member Alli Ragan of the New York AC won a tight 3-0 match over 2015 World bronze medalist Leigh Jaynes-Provisor of the U.S. Army. Ragan scored a first-period takedown, then added one point in the second period when Jaynes-Provisor was put on the shot clock for passivity and could not score in 30 seconds. In a close battle at 69 kg/152 lbs., Tamyra Mensah of the Titan Mercury WC edged Randi Miller of the U.S. Army WCAP, 2-1. Miller led 1-0 at the break, when Mensah was put on the shot clock and did not score. Midway through the second period, Mensah hit a low single leg takedown for a 2-1 lead. As time ran out, Miller got a leg attack on the edge. Officials ruled that time had run out. After the video review, the call was confirmed and Mensah's 2-1 win was upheld. Mensah is No. 2 on the Women's National Team, while Miller is No. 3. Miller was a 2008 Olympic bronze medalist. This match became necessary when 2015 World Team member Elena Pirozhkova of the Titan Mercury WC vacated this weight as she is moving down to 63 kg/138.75 lbs. Maroulis, Ragan and Mensah lead their best-of-three series, one match to none. Under approved USA Wrestling procedures, a past World medalist can challenge a 2015 World Team member in the non-qualified Olympic weight classes. The second match of the best-of-three series will be held at 6:30 p.m. on the competition mat inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena, prior to the start of the Iowa vs. Purdue Big Ten dual. In addition to the second-round of the Special Wrestle-offs, an exhibition match featuring Lauren Louive of the Hawkeye WC and Randi Beltz of the Titan Mercury WC at 58 kg/128 lbs. will also be held at 6:30 p.m. The Iowa vs. Purdue Big Ten dual meet starts at 8:00 p.m. Fans with tickets for the dual meet are encouraged to come at 6:30 p.m. to see the Olympic-caliber action.

If a third match is needed any of the three Special Wrestle-off series, it will be held immediately following the conclusion of the Iowa vs. Purdue dual meet. The Pan American Olympic Games Qualifying Tournament, set for Frisco, Texas on March 4-6, is one of the most important events of the year for American wrestlers. The top two place-winners in each weight class qualify their nation to compete in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The wrestling room at Ohio State's Steelwood Training Center is about to get more crowded. With championship credentials, specifically. Logan Stieber, the most decorated wrestler in Ohio State history, will join the Buckeyes' staff as a coach following April's Olympic Trails, head coach Tom Ryan announced today. He will bring with him 119 career victories, four national championships, a Hodge Trophy and a team national title. And if things go well in April, a spot on the U.S. Olympic Team. “I am very excited to be joining the Buckeye staff next year,” said Stieber. “I love Ohio State, so it's a dream come true that I can start my coaching career here as well as pursue my Olympic dreams. I'm excited to be able to work with the current and future student athletes. I think with my knowledge and experience I can help the Buckeyes continue to win on and off the mat.” The addition of Stieber's to Ryan's coaching staff give the Buckeyes a collective six national titles, seven NCAA finals appearances and 11 All-America honors amongst its four coaches. When World champion Kyle Snyder and Olympian Trevel Dlaganov are included, the Buckeyes' wrestling room is the only one in the country that includes a four time NCAA champion, a World champion and an Olympian. “Logan has been a tremendous example here as a student-athlete,” said Ryan. “He completed one of the most illustrious careers in both Ohio high school history [four state titles] and NCAA history by winning four Big Ten and NCAA championships while leading the Buckeyes to our first team title. Hopefully Olympic glory is next. I am excited for the current and future student athletes that will have the opportunity to learn from Logan. “I also want to thank Ross Thatcher for his years of work with the program,” Ryan continued. “He had a tremendous influence on bringing our first NCAA team title to Ohio State as well as he mentored our upper weights, especially Nick Heflin and Kyle Snyder. He will be looking to continue to help young, aspiring champions as he builds a top notch wrestling academy.” Thatcher served on Ohio State's staff in two different occasions – first as volunteer strength and conditioning coach from 2005-08 and then as a coach from 2011-12 through 2015-16. A graduate of Bishop Ready High School, Thatcher has had successful coaching stops at his alma mater, Penn State, Oklahoma and Ohio State. Stieber's collegiate career is unmatched, as he won every major individual award and added the ultimate team accomplishment last March – the Buckeyes' first-ever NCAA team title. Combined with four state titles he won at Monroeville High School, Stieber was 303-4 in high school and college with eight individual championships and two team titles. He won 96 of his 119 matches for the Scarlet and Gray via bonus points (80.6%). At last March's NCAA Championships, he etched his place is history by winning won four of five matches by a combined score of 57-9 and added a first period pin in his other win. Prior to beginning his coaching duties, Stieber will look to punch his ticket to the Summer Olympic Games in Rio at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials April 8-10 at Carver Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, Iowa. He earned a spot there by finishing second at last month's U.S. Senior Nationals in the 65kg weight class.

Tony Lyssiotis, four-year letter-winning starting wrestler at Eastern Michigan University a decade ago, is returning to his alma mater to serve as a volunteer assistant coach, the Ypsilanti-based school announced Thursday. Lyssiotis joins the Eagles mat coaching staff headed up by David Bolyard -- now in his second season at the helm -- with Luke Smith and Scott Mattingly as assistant coaches. A Michigan state champion wrestler at Oxford High School, Lyssiotis wrestled as 197-pound starter at EMU from 2004 through 2007. He finished third in the Mid-American Conference championships as a senior. He earned back-to-back Academic All-MAC honors his junior and senior years. "I am honored and very excited to be afforded the opportunity to work with Coach Bolyard, and Coach Smith, as they continue to build Eastern's wrestling program into a national powerhouse." Lyssiotis said. "I hope that my experience at Eastern and my enthusiasm for the program can be a benefit to this great group of student-athletes." Lyssiotis graduated from Eastern with a degree in Political Science in 2007. He is now serving as a firefighter in Westland, Mich. He brought his first-responder and mat careers together this past summer by wrestling at the 2015 World Police & Fire Games held in Fairfax, Va. Lyssiotis took first place at his weight class, the Freestyle 30+ years/ 97 kilos and under division.

At the end of a technical fall victory last week, Thomas Gilman caused a minor message board stir when he stood up at the end of the match. The problem wasn't some Cam Newton-inspired celebration, but that Gilman used the back of his opponent's still prostrated body and head to up himself from the Resilite. That action, known colloquially as "face-mushing" is essentially grinding your opponent's face in the mat in a manner that is neither sporting, nor kind. Though unlikely to cause physical damage, face mushing is a disrespectful gesture meant to prove dominance opponent -- something you would think a 15-point victory already achieved. This type of brutish and combative behavior isn't just dumb, reductive and immature; it also propagates the wrongheaded culture within wrestling that aggression and intimidation are weapons to be utilized. While fan boys of needless hostility might find gestures like face mushing as an endearing necessity of (faux) tough guy culture, in reality it's nothing more than a display of misplaced testosterone and underlying insecurity. Winners don't denigrate and disrespect their opponents. Are they tough? Yes. Unrelenting in their forward pressure? Sure. Are they unapologetic in dominance? Of course. The great ones were known as great in part because of a technical elegance, but also personal grace. John Smith, Gholamreza Takhti, Kaori Icho and Alexander Karelin -- none of these greats are prolific smilers, but they also weren't total jerks. Trash talking, chest-bumping, and punch-throwing outbursts come about when wrestlers are taught to hide and protect their weaknesses and failures rather than explore them. The true champions don't see shortcomings as weakness, but as opportunities to improve. You don't get better because you emphasized the walloping of an opponent with a parting gesture more befitting a jailhouse than a wrestling mat. Dollars to donuts, Thomas Gilman wins more matches if he tones down the bad boy rhetoric, and ceases to use intimidation as main wrestling skills. To fill the void of anger he (and others) could instead look at the technique missing from their repertoire and analyze it honestly and without bravado. Wrestlers like Gilman (and there are many who act out in a similar fashion) could find enrichment from self-awareness and by default probably win more wrestling matches. But more importantly they could become better brothers, sons and teammates. To your questions … Q: J'den Cox is supposedly moving down to 86 kilos for the Trials. Ben Askren seems to think he can be a contender there. Do you think he can challenge the likes of Jake Herbert, Kyle Dake, David Taylor, Ed Ruth and Keith Gavin? -- Mike C. Missouri's J'den Cox celebrates after his victory against Cornell (Photo/Mark Lundy, Lutte-Lens.com)Foley: You can't discount an NCAA champion at a weight class that seems to be wide open. However, not surprisingly, I don't agree with Ben. The paper might look good for Cox, but there is little chance he's having the type of run needed to secure an Olympic spot. The first big hurdle Cox will need to overcome is his lack of experience at the international level. Rules have changed, winning takes experience, and a strategy is almost as important as athleticism. On the technical side of the argument I worry most about Cox's shot defense. The way it seems to me, Cox: 1. Won't hold up to a set of attacks (Taylor, Herbert), 2. Leaves himself vulnerable to trap-arm gut wrenches in scrambles (Dake, Taylor), 3. Is often out of position, making him vulnerable to pushouts (Gavin, Ruth). For now I'm thinking this is Dake's spot to lose, but do remember that someone still needs to qualify the weight class in order to even have this discussion. Q: There has been a ton of talk recently about creating action and scoring, especially from the neutral position. First, I hate the four-point near fall rule and second I hate the funk roll defensive tactics. -- Jason M. Foley: Funk can be fun in places, but since the maturation of defensive techniques we are seeing a burst of stalemates. That essentially means we have 30 seconds of feeling out, a shot on the edge of the mat, a whizzer into some skank roll and finally an out-of-bounds or stalemate call. We are two minutes in and there is no score, which means there is little incentive to score. With the additional point for the same exposure, I can see why it shouldn't matter much, but I still disagree since there is nothing balancing out that extra point. For example, the international rule set added a point to the takedown, but they did so because too many people were using the pushout as an equal scoring opportunity. Athletes, coaches and fans wanted to see more techniques, but instead were seeing more of a shoving match. By incentivizing the turn the NCAA has forced more ground wrestling, which they hoped would increase action. In reality, two things have occurred. First, the top guy is so focused on that extra point he goes into a traditional snore ride between tilting attempts. Second, the moves that go from feet to back which were once five points are now six, but there is no extra opportunity for the wrestler who is down to make up that point. There is no balancing of scoring opportunities. If somehow takedowns were three points and those throws still only counted for six points there would be an equitable balance. But for now, any turn or any successful throw (in coordination with successive defensive wrestling from the knees) essentially eliminates the trailing wrestler's opportunity to wrestle back from his deficit. Q: Isaiah Martinez and Jason Nolf meet on Saturday. The betting line is Martinez -5/Nolf+5. What side are you betting? -- Mike C. Foley: That's a fantastic line. I think that Nolf gives up too may points and Martinez will be charged up for the challenge. Martinez by 7. MULTIMEDIA HALFTIME Highlight video from Ivan Poddubny (Hope you like house music … ) Interesting points: Brands moves mats, John Smith wears cowboy hats (even on the road), and boy-oh-boy do kids these days look young. Link: Massive human reported to do 5k pushups per day Link: Unfortunately this is the most-viewed wrestling story of 2016 Trump and Cruz FINALLY killed the singlet Never mind … this also helps eliminate the singlet from ever being a viable, popular uniform … Q: I'm afraid my Gophers are going to have the worst finish in 25 years. They are in danger of having a losing record for the first time since 1991-1992. They also just dropped out of the top 25 rankings. I know the Gophers have had some rebuilding years but nothing like this in a while. Even in those rebuilding years you'd see a freshman or two have a very solid season. Other than Tommy Thorn I don't have faith anyone is going to step up. Do you think J Rob is not getting it done like he used to? It seems like the team is becoming very Minnesota-only focused yet still lose top recruits to Penn State, ASU, and Purdue. Do you think if the Gophs could recruit all the top wrestlers in Minnesota they could get back to the top? -- Jeff M. Foley: The Gophers are in trouble. As you cited there is less talent in their room than recent seasons and recruiting has been down for the last few years. The toughness J Rob imbued into the performance of past teams seems to be missing in 2016. Why? The chemistry may just be off. They've lost coaches over the past few years and those missing contributions may have finally stacked too high. There is "sum greater than its parts" element to the formation of a top-caliber squad and sometimes that concoction can be volatile, and other times just flat wrong. Given his track record I'm certain he's not accepting this season as the new status quo. New wrestlers, maybe a new approach to training -- anything and everything will be up for review in 2016. The only thing lost from a down season (or few in a row) is the element of mystique they once enjoyed. That reputation is near impossible to earn, but can be lost in just 12 months. Q: Did Brian Shute wrestle in college? If so, what kind of college career did he have? -- Mike C. Brian Shute was a three-time All-American at OregonFoley: Absolutely Shute wrestled in college. He took the loss to Louden Swain and parlayed it into a sales pitch on his ability to showcase improved sportsmanship. Shute attended the University of Oregon where he was a three-time All-American for the Ducks. After the school dropped the program Shute made appeals to the administration and local officials. Nobody listened, so Shute disappeared. Nobody is quite sure where he is today, but legend has it he stalks Eugene, waiting for Phil Knight and the perfect moment to strike. (Seriously though, have you seen a recent picture of Les Gutches? Was he not the inspiration for Shute?!)

LAMONI, Iowa -- The Bulldog Wrestling team snapped a three-match streak by defeating Graceland 40-9 on Thursday night on the road. Truman fell behind 6-0 after a pinfall in the 125-pound match.

ROCK ISLAND, Ill. -- Despite competing short-handed with a pair of starters sidelined, Augustana used some impressive performances to post a 28-10 win over Wisconsin-Platteville on Thursday, January 21 in the Carver Center. The Vikings got wins over two nationally ranked Pioneers as they upped their season's record to 6-6. Senior Jimmy Panozzo (Carl Sandburg HS, Orland Park, Ill.) at 125 and junior Matt Sears (Marist HS, New Lenox, Ill.) at 149 both came through with victories over opponents listed in the most recent top 10 of the National Wrestling Coaches Association ranking.

Bowers was leading 21-5 when the match was stopped and that gave the Vikings a 25-3 lead and clinched the team victory. Sophomore Nick Torres (Lincoln-Way Central HS, Manhattan, Ill.) fell to Grant Wedepohl 12-0 at 184 to trim the Augustana lead to 25-7. However, sophomore Chis Giatras (Lemont HS, Lemont, Ill.) won a close 3-1 decision over Bryant Etherton at 197 pounds.

LEWISBURG, Pa. -- Bucknell won three of the final four contested bouts andclaimed a forfeit at 285 pounds to post a 24-13 victory over Lock Haven Thursday evening at Davis Gym. The success at the heavier weights helped the Bison overcome an early 10-8 deficit as they improved to 5-4 on the season and 2-2 at home. The Bald Eagles fell to 6-7 as they saw their two-match winning streak in the series snapped. Of Bucknell's six victories, three were by major decision and another went for six points. The Bison's two wins by decision were by a combined eight points. Bucknell took the lead for good when D.J. Hollingshead scored a 4-1 decision at 165 pounds. The freshman's first-period takedown against Cody Cordes stood up and gave the Bison an 11-10 edge. Senior Rustin Barrick followed with a 14-6 major decision at 174 pounds. It was his team-best seventh consecutive victory as he improved to 17-6 on the season. Barrick led 11-6 in the closing seconds with both he and opponent Tyler Wood circling in the center of the mat. Barrick made a quick strike and registered a takedown with seven seconds left that combined with the riding time vaulted the outcome to a major decision. Tom Sleigh had two takedowns and a reversal in the first two periods of the 184-pound bout and ended up with an 8-3 victory over Tristan Sponseller. It was his 10th win in his last 11 bouts. Perhaps the most exciting match of the night was at 197 pounds between Tyler Greene and Phil Sprenkle. Sprenkle held a 3-2 lead through two periods. He was whistled for his second stall warning early in the third period, allowing Greene to even the score at 3-3. The bout went to overtime at that score. Just 15 seconds into the first sudden victory overtime period Greene took down Sprenkle and was awarded two points. However, the referee went to the video replay and called Greene for his second stall warning prior to the takedown when his shoe came off, giving the 4-3 victory to Sprenkle. Joe Stolfi was then awarded a forfeit at 285 pounds to close the match. The first three bouts of the night were major decisions with Bucknell winning two of them. Paul Petrov opened the match with a commanding 14-3 victory at 125 pounds for his 99th career victory, while Tyler Smith earned a 10-2 major decision at 141 pounds. Those Bison victories were sandwiched around Lock Haven's Bobby Rehm posting a major decision at 133 pounds for his 99th career victory. Bucknell, which is now 12-2 in its last 14 duals in Davis Gym, will be back in action Saturday when it hosts Brown and Havard in Davis Gym. The Brown match will begin at 12 p.m., while the Harvard match will follow approximately 10 minutes after the conclusion. Live results of both will be available via TrackWrestling.com and there is free admission to both matches. Bucknell 24, Lock Haven 13 125: No. 12/11/11 Paul Petrov (B) maj dec.

MADISON, Wis. -- Due to inclement weather, the Wisconsin wrestling team's road trip to face Rutgers and Maryland this weekend has been postponed. Impending inclement weather expected to arrive early this weekend hindered Wisconsin's ability to travel. Makeup dates for the matches have not yet been determined. Wisconsin hosts Illinois on Jan. 31 at the UW Field House at 12 p.m. (CT) in Madison.

The early December verbal commit of Chris Sandoval (Pueblo County, Colo.) to Northern Colorado was reported to InterMat earlier on Thursday afternoon. This is a huge in-state get for a Bears program that is trying to grow into relevance on the Division I landscape under the coaching reign of Troy Nickerson. Sandoval is at present ranked No. 11 at 138 pounds nationally, and is positioned as the No. 22 overall prospect in the Class of 2017. Earlier this month, Sandoval won the Doc Buchanan Invitational title at 138 pounds, a weight class that featured three other nationally ranked wrestlers.

At 53 kg/116.5 pounds, 2015 World champion and three-time World medalist Helen Maroulis of the Sunkist Kids is challenging 2015 World Team member Whitney Conder of the U.S. Army WCAP for the Pan American Qualifier berth. Maroulis won the 2015 World title at 55 kg/121 lbs., a non-Olympic weight. At 58 kg/128 lbs., 2015 World bronze medalist Leigh Jaynes-Provisor of the U.S. Army is challenging 2015 World Team member Alli Ragan of the New York AC for the team spot. Jaynes-Provisor won her World medal at 60 kg/132 lbs., a non-Olympic weight. At 69 kg/152 lbs., a Special Wrestle-off for the team has been set between No. 2 Tamyra Mensah of the Titan Mercury WC and No. 3 Randi Miller of the U.S. Army WCAP. Miller was a 2008 Olympic bronze medalist. There will be no Special Wrestle-off series at 63 kg/138.75 lbs., as has been previously announced. 2012 World champion and three-time World medalist Elena Pirozhkova of the Titan Mercury WC withdrew her challenge against 2015 World Team member Erin Clodgo of the Sunkist Kids at 63 kg/138.75 lbs.

After some significant shifts in the upper part of the Fab 50 national team rankings, it'll be time for another week of the 2015-16 high school wrestling season, which has been interesting to say the least. And the docket starts with the No. 1 team in the nation traveling to take on the newly minted No. 2 ranked team on Saturday at 6:00 p.m. No. 1 Wyoming Seminary (Pa.) at No. 2 Blair Academy (N.J.) Any time one sees No. 1 facing No. 2 in any sporting event, regardless of what ranking level, it elevates the cache of the event. This one being no exception, as the two east coast prep schools have grown to establish a wrestling rivalry in recent years, especially since Wyoming Seminary has knocked off Blair Academy on a couple of occasions; the 2014 National Prep Championships and last year's dual meet. The match this Saturday could turn on any number of strategic maneuverings in addition to the actual wrestling that occurs on the Blair Academy home mat. Below is a projected set of matchups based on weight classes in which the wrestlers have competed this season. 106: Justin Hoyle (Wyoming Seminary) vs. No. 15 Michael Colaiocco (Blair Academy) 113: Benny Baker vs. No. 16 Chris Cannon 120: Jack Davis vs. Zach Sherman 126: Jake Riegel vs. Josh Gobencion/Mike Madara 132: Trent Olson vs. No. 9 Requir van der Merwe 138: Patrick Munn/Andrew Munn vs. Shane Brackup 145: Jake Hendricks vs. Andrew Merola 152: No. 1 Mason Manville vs. John Manning/Max Pickett 160: Will Verallis vs. No. 14 Ryan Karoly 170: Michael Doggett vs. No. 4 Brandon Dallavia 182: No. 1 Nick Reenan vs. Jimmy Stillerman 195: No. 12 Christian Dietrich vs. No. 3 Chase Singletary 220: No. 14 Will Hilliard vs. Nick Mosco 285: TBD vs. Neil Putnam Based on the "base" lineups, Blair Academy has the edge in seven matches (106, 113, 132, 160, 170, 195, and 285), Wyoming Seminary the edge in five (126, 138, 152, 182, and 220), while there are two tossups (120 and 145). However, Wyoming Seminary could easily flip three of those Blair advantages (132, 160, and 195) into wins of their own with what would be upsets; while based on personnel on the mat, only possibly the 220 match could be flipped by Blair Academy. In addition, based on strategy, Wyoming Seminary can hold on to the 182 pound match and turn the 195 pound match into one they are favorites; Nick Reenan could end up going 195, while Deitrich competes at 182, Reenan having beaten Singletary on multiple occasions last year. Another strategic gambit could come at 152/160, with Manville and Verallis switching weight classes to create yet another Wyoming Seminary win. The most likely scenario in this dual meet is a Wyoming Seminary win, and that would make the national ranking landscape much easier. On the other hand, a Blair Academy upset creates a mucked up picture at the top of the national rankings. Chicago Catholic League returns to wrestling prominence Seeing the Chicago Catholic League (CCL) calendar in such a prominent position on the wrestling calendar, one must think it is a decade gone by. However, the injection of No. 19 Marmion Academy (Ill.) and No. 40 Montini Catholic (Ill.) into the league, along with the re-emergence of No. 14 Mt. Carmel (Ill.) as a national power, has created the present landscape. Saturday's tournament is being held at the De La Salle Institute.

BALTIMORE, MD --The Johns Hopkins wrestling team rallied from an early 12-3 deficit for a 20-19 Centennial Conference victory over visiting Gettysburg at Goldfarb Gymnasium Wednesday night. The win is the ninth straight for Johns Hopkins against Gettysburg and improves the Blue Jays' record 1-2 overall and 1-1 in the Centennial. Gettysburg had a three-match winning streak snapped and slips to 5-4 overall and 0-1 in the Centennial. How The Blue Jays Won: Hopkins trailed 12-3 when sophomore 157 Tommy Grifa took the mat. Exactly seven minutes later, Grifa had a 24-9 technical fall victory over John Thouin to his credit and the Blue Jay rally was in motion. Freshman Dane Morgan followed with a gutty 3-2 win over senior Tyler Cunningham and junior Jared Forman added a bonus point at 174 with a 13-5 major decision victory against Crawford Oswald. Hopkins got its second technical fall victory and two more all-important bonus points at 184 as freshman Isaac Morales took Robby Tarvin, 16-0, to give the Blue Jays a 20-12 lead. Not Quite Over: Gettysburg closed to within 20-15 when Anthony Puca scored an 8-2 decision over Miles Gilliam at 197 and the Bullets then sent freshman Paul Triandafilu, currently ranked eighth in the nation, to the mat with a chance to win the match for GC with a pin. Triandafilu remained unbeaten on the year, but a 15-5 major decision against Hayden Good brought just four team points to account for the final score of 20-19 in favor of the Blue Jays. Halfway to 100: Tonight's match was the 50th in the all-time series between Johns Hopkins and Gettysburg. The teams first met on February 6, 1932. Up Next Johns Hopkins will return to action on Sunday, January 24 when the Blue Jays travel to Washington & Lee for a Centennial Conference dual meet. Results: 125 - Evan Krumheuer (J) def.
