125lbs – 2 Allocations
Quick Summary: Sagaris of LIU finds himself is some crazy scrambles, leading to fantastic bouts. His last second victory over Pleasant was fun to watch. He fell to Wagner of Binghamton in overtime in the 3rd place bout. Seymour’s win over Farmer was by a wider margin than their previous matchup last month. He is poised for a podium run at NCAAs. With his ranking of #12 in the latest coaches panel, he may see a top-10 seed. Wagner, Sagaris, and Pleasant will need an at-large bid to qualify. Wagner, finishing in third, helps his odds.
Finals – #1 Sheldon Seymour (LEH) dec. #2 Charlie Farmer (ARMY) 6-0
3rd – #4 Carson Wagner (BING) dec. #5 Robbie Sagaris (LIU) 8-5

133lbs – 1 Allocation
Quick Summary: Phipps came in clutch to beat Waterman of Drexel to earn the lone automatic bid. I highly recommend going back to watch the consi-semi between Berginc and Lopez. The match was over 10-minutes of wrestling. The marathon bout had intense scrambles, multiple challenges, and excited fanbases. It was one of the most fun matches on the weekend. Berginc did earn the allocation for the conference coming into the weekend, his odds of an at-large are increased because of it.
Finals: #2 Kurt Phipps (BUCK) dec. #4 Kyle Waterman (DREX) 7-5
3rd – #1 Ethan Berginc (ARMY) dec. #3 Matty Lopes (LEH) 1-0
5th – #5 Micah Roes (BING) dec. #7 Raymond Lopez (AMER) 14-9
7th – #10 Brendan Ferretti (NAVY) WBF #6 Braxton Fries-Appello (SHU) Fall 1:08
141lbs – 3 Allocations
Quick Summary: Koderhandt defeated Chappell in the finals for the second straight year. Expect his seed to be a single digit. He will be put in a great position to earn All-American honors. He earned his 100th NCAA win over the weekend as well. The 3rd place match was another barn burner decided by a late non-takedown call. Soriano snuck by with a one-point win.
Finals – #1 Josh Koderhandt (NAVY) WBF #3 Dylan Chappell (BUCK) Fall 1:56
3rd – #2 Jordan Soriano (DREX) dec. #5 Bryce Kresho (F&M) 8-7

7th – #4 Carter Bailey (LEH) Mdec. #9 Nate Lucier (BING) 13-4
149lbs – 1 Allocation
Quick Summary: McDaniel’s win earned him the only auto bid at this weight. His in-season loss to Hines was reversed this weekend. Hines got an at-large bid. Braden Bower outplaced his 11th seed by placing 5th. He was just one of many Bucknell Bison to outperform their seed on the weekend.
Finals – #1 Trae McDaniel (ARMY) dec. #2 Malyke Hines (LEH) 7-5
3rd – #5 Kaemen Smith (NAVY) dec. #6 Noah Tapia (HOF) 8-5

7th – #8 Dom Findora (DREX) Mdec. #9 Josh Hillard (F&M) 11-0
157lbs – 1 Allocation
Quick Summary: Surprisingly, the top five seeds held at the weight. Rozynski proved why he’s the top seed by winning his first EIWA title in as many tries.
Finals – #1 Logan Rozynski (LEH) Mdec. #2 Luke Nichter (DREX) 10-2
3rd – #3 Jonathan Ley (NAVY) dec. #4 Cade Wirnsberger (BUCK) 2-1

7th – #9 Jurius Clark (HOF) dec. #8 Felix Lettini (SHU) 7-6
165lbs – 2 Allocations
Quick Summary: Kyle Mosher spent 97 seconds on the mat in his first match. He followed that up with two medical forfeits. Elmore had a strong performance for a 3rd place finish. Morgan State’s Lockhart was the lowest seeded wrestler to place in the entire event after an exceptional weekend. Army’s Filipowicz did receive an at-large bid. He is 16th in the coach rankings and 13th in the RPI.
Finals – #3 Kyle Mosher (HOF) MFF #1 Noah Mulvaney (BUCK)
3rd – #4 Dylan Elmore (NAVY) dec. #5 Carter Baer (BING) 4-3

7th – #8 Cody Walsh (DREX) WBF #12 Cooper Lockhart (MSU) Fall 2:00
174lbs – 4 Allocations
Quick Summary: The deepest weight class was worth the price of admission. Cassella and Wask wrestled to a tiebreaker finish. Harkins punched his ticket in the morning with a win over Campos while Queen defeated Takats. Takats finished in 5th, one placement outside of the automatic bid territory, but has received an at-large.
Finals: #2 Brevin Cassella (BING) dec. #1 Danny Wask (NAVY) 4-1 TB

7th – #8 Rylan Rogers (LEH) dec. #10 Blake Bahna (LIU) 5-0
184lbs – 1 Allocation
Quick Summary: McFarland was crowned champ at the most open weight on the weekend. The 4th seed grinded out three decisions en route to the title. He was Hofstra’s second EIWA champ on the year, a first in program history since joining the conference. D’Alesio won four straight in the wrestle backs to claim 3rd. He was LIU’s highest place finisher on the weekend. Rogers’ finals appearance helped receive an at-large bid.
Finals – #4 Ross McFarland (HOF) dec. #3 Caden Rogers (LEH) 11-4
3rd – #8 Anthony D’Alesio (LIU) dec. #2 Giuseppe Hoose (DREX) 4-2

285 – 3 Allocations
Quick Summary: Owen Trephan continued the Lehigh tradition of having an EIWA finalist since 2018. His first and only EIWA appearance included a major, fall, and decision. Brady Colbert is an amazing story. He was a last-minute addition to the bracket, and earned a trip to NCAAs. Cory Day will make his 3rd appearance at the big show. Morgan State’s Xavier Doolin had a strong campaign and came up just short of an at-large bid - he’ll be the alternate at the weight.
Finals – #1 Owen Trephan (LEH) dec. #3 Cory Day (BING) 7-1
3rd – #2 Brady Colbert (ARMY) dec. #5 Xavier Doolin (MSU) 10-4
