DURHAM, N.C. -- The Duke University wrestling team turned in a dominating performance as the Blue Devils posted a 38-9 victory over Virginia Military Institute this evening in non-conference dual action. The Blue Devils scored bonus points in six of the eight bouts it won on the evening, including getting three pins. The win is Duke’s fifth in the past six seasons against the Keydets and put the Blue Devils at 5-8 in duals this season. VMI falls to 3-12 overall. “I felt like it was a great performance,” said head coach Glen Lanham. “I felt like the guys wrestled well. We’ve been telling them all week to go after their offense and attack and I felt like we did that tonight. It was a good start to the week. We have two tough duals coming up with Drexel and Rider so we have to be ready for those. I felt like it was a good start.” Duke kicked off the evening with redshirt freshman Evan Botwin garnering a 15-0 technical fall over Caleb Yost at 133 pounds. Botwin consistently turned Yost as the back points added up as the Blue Devil 133-pounder ended the match with 45 seconds remain in in the second period. The technical fall was the first of the Chestnut Hill, Pa. native’s career. The firsts continued to come for Duke with Xaviel Ramos grabbing six points with his first career pin in a tight 2-2 match early in the third period. Even at 2-2 heading into the third period, VMI’s Emmitt Kelly chose bottom in hopes he could get the winning escape point. Ramos, however, had other ideas as the rookie put Kelly on his back with 1:19 remaining to get the fall. A solid 6-0 decision by freshman Connor Bass at 149 pounds gave Duke the 14-6 lead after four matches and redshirt junior Immanuel Kerr-Brown quickly made it 18-6 with a second consecutive major decision at 157 pounds. Bass picked up his seventh win and third dual victory, while Kerr-Brown notched his team-best 17th win of the year. Redshirt sophomore Trey Adamson had the fastest bout of the night, pinning Jake Koch in just 1:01 for his second fall of the year and seventh of his career. His 13th win of the year, Duke’s 174-pounder is 8-4 in duals this season. At 184 pounds, rookie Jacob Kasper gave Duke five more points with a 21-5 technical fall of Hardy Hendren. After getting off to a slow start, the Lexington, Ohio native scored seven points in the final 30 seconds to take control of the match 11-3 after three minutes. He built upon his lead in the second and ultimately ended the match with a takedown with 1:15 remaining. Redshirt sophomore Conner Hartmann continued the trend with the third pin of the night for the Blue Devils. With a 7-0 lead after one period, Hartmann continued to wear down Andrew Embree en route to the fall with 30 seconds left in the third period. The win was the 13th of the year for the 197-pounder and puts him at 8-4 in duals this season. Rounding out Duke’s lineup for the night was senior Brian Self at heavyweight. Returning to the lineup from injury, Self suffered a tough 3-2 decision to VMI’s wins leader Juan Adams after what appeared to be an escape in the third period came up just short and allowed Adams to ride out the match for the bonus point and one-point victory. Duke continues its non-conference action at Rider and at Drexel this weekend. The duals are set for 1 and 7 p.m., respectively. Results: 125 – Dalton Henderson (VMI) won by forfeit; Team Score: Duke 0, VMI 6 133 – Evan Botwin (Duke) tech fall Caleb Yost (VMI), 15-0; TS: 5-6 141 – Xaviel Ramos (Duke) fall Emmitt Kelly (VMI), 5:41; TS: 11-6 149 – Connor Bass (Duke) decision Shabaka Jones (VMI), 6-0; TS: 14-6 157 – Immanuel Kerr-Brown (Duke) major decision Edward Gottwald (VMI), 14-0; TS: 18-6 165 – Marcus Cain (Duke) decision Mark Darr (VMI), 3-0; TS: 21-6 174 – Trey Adamson (Duke) fall Jake Koch (VMI) 1:01; TS: 27-6 184 – Jacob Kasper (Duke) technical fall Hardy Hendren (VMI) 21-5; TS: 32-6 197 – Conner Hartmann (Duke) fall Andrew Embree (VMI), 6:30; TS: 38-6 285 – Juan Adams (VMI) decision Brian Self (Duke), 3-2; TS: 38-9

Senior Dan Palmerino (Amsterdam, NY/Amsterdam) pinned his opponent in 1:10 of the first period in the 141 pound match to give The College at Brockport Wrestling team, ranked No. 14 in the country, an early lead and the Golden Eagles cruised to a 35-9 victory Wednesday night at the Jim and John Vlogianitis Gymnasium in Brockport. The win for Brockport (3-0) guaranteed another season of at least a .500 record extending the streak to 51 consecutive years. Only Iowa State has a longer active streak in the history of college wrestling at any level. Senior Matt Ellis (Rochester, NY/Greece Arcadia) started the match and senior night with an impressive 21-8 major decision victory at 125 pounds giving the Golden Eagles the early 4-0 lead. RIT (3-7) came back at 133 pounds with a pin in the second period at 3:27 to take a 6-4 lead in the match. Palmerino answered quickly with a takedown and pin in the first 1:10 of his match at 141 pounds as Brockport regained the lead 10-6 and did not trail again for the rest of the match. Sophomore Jordan Dyer (Chenango Forks, NY/Chenango Forks) posed an 11-4 decision and Lewis Cucchiara (Rochester, NY/Gates-Chili) followed with a 12-6 decision at 157 pounds for the Golden Eagles.

BALTIMORE, MD -- The Johns Hopkins wrestling team earned three wins by fall and won eight of 10 bouts to roll past visiting Gettysburg, 43-6, in Centennial Conference action at Goldfarb Gymnasium on Wednesday night. The Blue Jays picked up their fourth straight victory and improve to 6-3 overall and 3-0 in the Centennial Conference, while the Bullets slip to 3-12 overall and 0-3 in the CC. Johns Hopkins has now won seven straight and nine of the last 11 against the Bullets. A first-period pin by third-ranked Paul Bewak at 125 and a forfeit win for senior Ray Yagloski at 133 staked the Blue Jays to a quick 12-0 lead before Gettysburg senior Matt Spano responded with an 8-3 decision against Evan Krumheuer at 141 to slice the deficit to 12-3. Any hopes for a Gettysburg comeback were dashed over the next three weight classes as senior 149 Duncan Crystal (forfeit), junior 157 Christian Salera (major decision) and junior 165 Welles Sakmar (decision) all posted victories to extend the lead to 25-3. Pat Thomas added an 8-6 victory over Jared Forman at 174 for the Bullets, but Kyle Spangler added another win by forfeit for the Blue Jays at 184 and Evan Johnson and Joey Tilson posted wins by fall at 197 and 285, respectively, to close out the match.

Kearney, Neb. -- Senior Brock Smith recorded a major decision at 165 pounds and the 2nd-ranked Nebraska-Kearney wrestling team won three other matches by a single point to edge Lindenwood, 19-18, Wednesday night in St. Charles, Mo. The Lopers improve to 12-3 (3-0) while the Lions fall to 3-2 (2-2). Last week, LWU fell to 5th-ranked Central Oklahoma by a similar 19-18 score.

EDMOND -- No. 5-ranked Central Oklahoma took eight of 10 matches and picked up four bonus-point wins to cruise past Central Missouri 31-6 Wednesday night at Hamilton Field House in a Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association mismatch. It was the 20th straight home win for the Bronchos, who improved to 10-4 on the season and 4-1 in the league while stretching their series lead over the Mules to 36-0. "Overall I saw a lot of good things and we had a few guys take some positive steps," head coach David James said.

The mid-point of the 2013-14 scholastic season has come and gone, and much has happened in the high school wrestling landscape. This includes the development of Aaron Pico no longer being part of the scholastic wrestling pool. Pico is going to focus exclusively on an international wrestling career, and then move onto mixed martial arts. Since he is no longer wrestling scholastically, or in college, Pico will no longer be evaluated in the grade rankings. Apple Valley's Mark Hall is now the No. 1-ranked sophomore (Photo/Jeff Beshey, The Guillotine)As a result, Mark Hall moves into the No. 1 slot for the Class of 2016. The other four No. 1 positions remain unchanged: Kyle Snyder (Good Counsel, Md./USOTC) leads the 2014 group, Lance Benick (Totino Grace, Minn.) is best in the 2015 class, Spencer Lee (Franklin Regional, Pa.) is tops among the Class of 2017, while Cade Olivas (California) is the top junior high wrestler. A notable mover in the senior class is Dylan Milonas (Blair Academy, N.J.), who is now No. 18 after winning titles at the Ironman and Beast of the East. An additional positive mover in that group is Zeke Moisey (Bethlehem Catholic, Pa.) up to No. 21 after winning titles at both the Beast of the East and the Escape the Rock Tournament. Among juniors the notable mover is Ke-Shawn Hayes (Park Hill, Mo.), who is now No. 4 overall after winning titles at both the Walsh Ironman and Kansas City Stampede. A newcomer to the junior high top 15 is Theorius Robinson (Colorado), who won a title at the Tulsa Nationals earlier this month. InterMat Platinum is required to view all the rankings.

The UFC's pay-per-view card on Super Bowl weekend is usually one of the biggest MMA shows of the year, and with two title fights on the card, Saturday's show fits the bill. Once John starts paying attention (sorry, the Thunder vs. Heat game was distracting), he and Richard break down the action. Renan Barao should get past Uriah Faber for a second time to keep his bantamweight belt. Featherweight king Jose Aldo, on the other hand, might have a trickier match against Ricardo Lamas.

After winning the Kansas Cup over the weekend, by .5 of a point, the Bethany College Wrestling team hosted York College Tuesday, Jan. 28. The Swedes did just enough to escape the night with a win. The 16th-ranked Swedes defeated the 11th-ranked Panthers 19-18. "Though we came away with a win against a quality team, thanks in part to our depth, we didn't perform at the level we need to in order to be where we want to be at the end of the season," said Assistant Coach Cody Garcia.

COLUMBIA, Ky. -- The sixth-ranked Lindsey Wilson College Wrestling team defeated No. 5 Campbellsville (Ky.) Tuesday night 23-9 inside a packed Biggers Sports Center. Lindsey Wilson improves to 7-4 in duals this season while Campbellsville falls to 22-5. Campbellsville took an early lead after third-ranked Cody Steiner won by decision10-8 over sixth-ranked Myron Bradbury at the 125 class to go up 3-0. No. 15 Keaton Thomas would answer for Lindsey Wilson at 133 with an upset 6-5 decision over fourth-ranked Tyler Alsip to tie the dual 3-3. The win would help jumpstart a Blue Raider run that saw Lindsey Wilson grapplers win the next four matches. Third-ranked Wismit Moinius won by a 6-1 decision over seventh-ranked Colby Rinehart at 141 to give Lindsey Wilson their first lead of the day at 6-3. The Blue Raiders would hold that lead for the remainder of the dual. Eighth-ranked Isaac Thomas took a 9-5 win at 149 over Brandon Westerman, who ranks No. 2 at the 141 weight class. Top-ranked Joe Cozart then won by major decision 17-7 over sixth-ranked Shawn McGhee at the 157 class to extend the Blue Raider lead to 13-3. In another upset win, No. 14 Mitchell Judkins defeated No. 11 Treyvontay Rhodes at the 165 class 3-0. The Tigers would get their second win after No. 11 Travis McIntosh won by decision over Erick Gomez 7-2 at 174. Jameel Bryant would answer for the Blue Raiders with an 8-0 major decision over Kyle Sweedman at the 184 class, giving Lindsey Wilson a 20-6 lead with just two weight classes left. Making his Blue Raider debut, Jahwon Akui won in a close 3-2 decision over No. 12 Nate Knauf at the 197 class. Ameer Daniels would fall in the heavyweight class 3-2 to Justin McDaniel, ending the dual 23-9 in favor of Lindsey Wilson.

Josh Duplin's late takedown gave him a 4-3 win and preserved a 21-16 victory for the 13th-ranked Mountain Cat wrestlers at No. 16 Lake Erie (OH) College on Tuesday. Pitt-Johnstown raised its winning streak to eight straight matches and improved to 10-1 on the year. After Evan Rosborough upset Zac Bennett at 197 lbs. to narrow Lake Erie's deficit to 18-16 heading into the final bout of the night, Duplin used a late takedown to erase a 3-2 deficit and defeat Almonte Patrick 4-3 to give the Mountain Cats the victory. The Mountain Cats started strong with fourth-ranked Dave Fogle's 17-1 technical fall over Keanu Thompson at 6:22, but Lake Erie came right back to take its first lead of the night with wins at 133 and 141 lbs. At 133 lbs., Austin Gillihan defeated Luke Palamides, 13-7, before Dylan Kager scored a 14-3 major decision over Craig Dawson at 141 lbs. to put the Storm in front, 7-5. Pitt-Johnstown regained the lead at 149 lbs. when Sam Hanau broke a 9-9 third-period tie with a fall over Nick Bloch at 5:35 to make it 11-7. At 157 lbs., second-ranked Zach Vargo broke open a 1-0 lead after two periods on his way to defeating Mountain Cat true freshman Cole Landowski, 6-1, and getting Lake Erie to within one at 11-10. Eighth-ranked Gary Lantz increased the Pitt-Johnstown lead to 14-10 with a 9-5 decision over Tyler Tesney at 165 lbs., a 4-2 win by Dylan Zivcic over Nikos Garafola at 174 lbs. narrowed it to 14-13. Second-ranked Travis McKillop earned a 10-2 major decision over Chevy Farris at 184 lbs. to give the Mountain Cats a five-point advantage with two bouts remaining. However, Rosborough scored five points as time was about to expire to upset Bennett, 6-4, setting up Duplin's match that sealed the Mountain Cat win. With the loss, Lake Erie dropped to 9-7. Pitt-Johnstown will host Wheeling Jesuit (WV) University on Friday, before hosting Gannon University on Saturday, February 8. Both matches are scheduled to start at 7 p.m. in the Sports Center.

This past weekend was the last heavy weekend in terms of regular season action throughout the country. Some states start their individual state tournament series this week, while others have team state series events. There are additional states where regular season action is still going on, whether its duals or conference tournaments. No. 1 Blair Academy journey of dual meets This past weekend, Blair Academy (N.J.) hosted a super quad meet in which the host Buccaneers wrestled four teams, two of whom were nationally ranked. The opening dual meet was a 47-9 victory over No. 24 Don Bosco Prep (N.J.), in which Blair Academy took home victories in 12 weight classes. Results In the nightcap, the Buccaneers won ten bouts against No. 27 St. Edward (Ohio) in a 46-12 victory. Results The other two victories came by the scores of 61-6 over Smyrna, Del., and 47-15 over Tulsa Union, Okla. In the other battle of nationally ranked teams on site, Don Bosco Prep upended St. Edward 31-19, as the Ironman won eight of the weight classes. Results It was an interesting dual meet, as St. Edward went 4-2 in matches decided by two points or less. In addition, the absence of No. 11 L.J. Bentley at 113 pounds was at least a nine-point swing to the detriment of St. Edward; while Don Bosco Prep misplayed strategy in the 170/182 weight classes. The absence of Bentley also proved costly, as St. Edward was upset 36-27 by Tulsa Union, Okla. In that dual meet, the teams split the bouts seven apiece. An outcome of interest in that dual meet was an unexpected pin for Luke Wolfensberger of the victorious Redskins against Hunter Ladnier at 132. No. 8 Bergen Catholic on its own gauntlet This past Saturday, Bergen Catholic -- which is the best team in NJSIAA competition -- took on their sixth nationally ranked foe of the season in the form of fellow state champion No. 20 Bound Brook, N.J. The first nine matches of the dual were back-and-forth, as the lead changed hands three times with three other times where the score was tied. However, a swing match at 170 pounds provided the dual meet's final turn. A battle of state qualifiers between Kevin Mulligan and Isaiah Soto went in favor of Mulligan by 5-0 decision, which broke a 16-16 tie. No. 1 Johnny Sebastian would secure a pin early in the second period to push the team score out to 25-16. The situation was further exacerbated when Danny DeLorenzi pulled off an upset at 195, when he pinned returning state qualifier Aaron Saavedra early in the third period. Two additional narrow decisions for Bergen Catholic would provide the final margin of 37-16, including a 5-3 upset victory for Conner O'Brien over returning state placer Stephen Johnson. Results Come this weekend, Bergen Catholic is scheduled to take on their seventh and eighth nationally ranked foes in dual meet competition. Not only have these been ranked teams, but they all reside inside the top 25 at present. Friday night, the Crusaders travel to Don Bosco Prep for their annual rivalry dual meet; then on Saturday, they make the trip to Blair Academy for a 6 p.m. dual meet. Also this week in the Garden State is a dual meet with Bound Brook traveling to No. 25 St. Peter's Prep. The teams did already wrestle at The Clash XII in Minnesota in early January, a match won by St. Peter's Prep 35-28. However, the matches were split seven apiece, and Bound Brook was without multiple key contributors. No. 34 Buchanan journeys through its rivals in California's Central Section A week ago today, Buchanan hosted No. 36 Clovis West for a conference dual meet. Both teams won seven weight classes in the dual meet; however, the home-standing Bears had a 5-2 edge in pins to win by a 37-32 score. Results Tomorrow, the challenge is stark for Buchanan as they travel to No. 4 Clovis. While the Bears were the last in-state squad to defeat Clovis in a dual meet. However, that was more than 80 matches and seven years ago. Stillwater gets it all right for Sooner State supremacy in victory over Broken Arrow Two of the nation's best teams did battle last night in Oklahoma, as Stillwater traveled to take on Broken Arrow for the Tigers' wrestling program alumni night. However, the Pioneers were unkind guests, as two swing bout pins in the first half of the dual meet and a pair of overtime victories in the second half made the difference in a 37-23 victory. The match started at 138 pounds, as a pair of wrestlers with state championships under their belt took to the mat. Stillwater's Tristan Moran secured the pin over Shea Conley at the 3:09 mark. The Pioneers would stretch the lead to 9-0 with a 5-1 decision victory for No. 5 Joe Smith over Tanner Bailey in a battle of state champions. Broken Arrow would pick up their lone lead of the evening at 10-9 with a 25 second pin from Paden Bailey at 152 and a 9-0 major decision from Braxton Owens at 160. Consecutive pins for Stillwater would give them back the lead at 21-10. The first was from No. 5 Chandler Rogers at 170, while at 182, Jordan Dieringer earned the fall against state qualifier Isaiah Page. The host Tigers would counter with consecutive victories, a 6-4 decision at 195 from Quintonio Tolon and a pin at 220 from Steven Allen to cut the deficit to 21-19. With six matches to go, James Brower would catalyze the push to the finish for Stillwater with a 5-2 overtime victory over Trenton Lieurance at 285 pounds. No. 13 Andrew Nieman would further that push with an 11-0 major decision at 106. Broken Arrow would get their lone victory in this stretch at 113 pounds, with a 9-0 major decision from Tejuan Daniels. Stillwater's Jacob Fontanez would score a 9-7 overtime upset victory over No. 17 Markus Simmons at 120 pounds, then Benny Teegarden did the same in a 2-1 victory over two-time state champion Davion Jeffries at 126. To close out the dual meet, No. 13 Kaid Brock upended three-time state placer Zack Edwards 5-2 at 132 pounds. The two teams flip positions in this week's Fab 50, Stillwater is No. 11, while Broken Arrow is No. 12. No. 14 Lowell upends state champion Shamrocks in Assembly Dual A week ago today, No. 14 Lowell (Mich.) hosted No. 17 Detroit Catholic Central (Mich.) during an in-school dual meet. The Red Arrows jumped out to a 7-0 lead with a major decision from state champion Bailey Jack (130) and a decision from Jordan Hall (135). However, the Shamrocks pushed back with a 24 point barrage from five consecutive wins: a pin from Myles Amine (140), a technical fall from Malik Amine (145), a major decision from Tyler Morland (152), a decision from No. 12 at 152 Nick Bennett (160), and a pin from No. 12 Andrew Garcia (171). The next match would serve as the turning point for the dual meet with Max Dean taking on Junior National freestyle All-American Logan Marcicki. Marcicki pinned Dean when the two wrestled last year, and jumped out to an early lead in the bout at 189 pounds. However, Dean would rally back and get the pin at the 5:01 mark to cut the Lowell deficit to 24-13. That started a six match string of victories for the Red Arrows, which continued with Garrett Stehley's major decision over Nick Giese in a battle of state placers at 215 pounds. It was followed up by a 3-2 decision for No. 13 Josh Colegrove against Jimmy Russell, with both wrestlers bumped up a weight class to 285. Pins from Sam Russell (103) and Lucas Hall (112) would add to the winning streak, which finished state runner-up Zeth Dean's major decision at 119. Two-time state third placer Trevor Zdebski would close the dual meet with a decision victory over state placer Derek Krajewski at 125, but it was too little and too late for Detroit Catholic Central, who lost by a 36-27 final score. Southeast Polk flips script at Ed Winger Invitational Two weeks ago in a dual meet at Hilton Coliseum on the campus of Iowa State University. Bettendorf had won eight weight classes in a 37-27 victory over Southeast Polk. This past weekend in the Ed Winger Invitational hosted by Urbandale, the Rams changed the narrative as they used eleven placers to score a 32 point tournament victory (233.5-to-201.5). Three Southeast Polk wrestlers won weight class titles: Nolan Hellickson (120), Ethan Andersen (220), and Jake Marnin (285). Another trio finished in second place: Briar Dittmer (145), Brady Buchheit (152), and Deion Mikesell (195)). Rounding out the placing brigade were Keegan Shaw (132) and Aaron Meyer (138) with third place finishes; while Adam Brown (106), Jonah Williams (126), and Mason Kerr (170) finished fourth. Bettendorf countered with their usual suspects, five winning weight class titles and another placing third. However, only two additional Bulldog wrestlers were able to earn top six placement finishes -- Drew Sass (152) in sixth, and Michael Belanger (160) finishing fourth. Champions were Jack Wagner (106), Jacob Schwarm (113), No. 4 Fredy Stroker (132), No. 10 Logan Ryan (138), and Jacob Woodard (145); with Paul Glynn (120) taking third. Rounding out the weight class champions were Chris Walters (126) from Iowa City West, Zach Johnston (152) from Adel, Isaiah Patton (160) from Dowling Catholic, Hank Swalla (170) from Ames, Dakota Clausen (182) from Dallas Center-Grimes, and Colin Kreiter (195) from North Scott. Results Keystone State notes Cumberland Valley jumps into the Fab 50 at No. 37 after a 29-26 victory at No. 26 Nazareth. The squads split the weight classes at seven apiece. Even though the host Blue Eagles were without Sage Karam, who was competing in the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona, his impact on this dual meet's outcome would have been rather limited. The most obvious difference in this dual meet was that Cumberland Valley had the meet's only two pins. Results This weekend marks the district championship dual meet tournaments. Each of the state's districts in Class AAA and Class AA will determine qualifiers for next week's state dual meet championships. The WPIAL (i.e. Pittsburgh area) had a pair of Fab 50 teams in Class AAA, No. 9 Franklin Regional and No. 41 Greater Latrobe. Those two teams happened to meet this past week in the sub-section 1 championship, with Franklin Regional winning nine bouts in a 46-28 victory. The teams are very likely to meet in the WPIAL championship bout on Saturday night. Couple quick bits St. Johns beat Davison 36-27 in a dual meet this past Friday held at the University of Michigan. The Redwings won eight of the weight classes, including both matches that placed nationally ranked wrestlers against one another. In the 145 pound bout, it was a pair of nationally ranked 138s, as No. 3 Zac Hall defeated No. 13 Justin Oliver 7-5; while at 189 pounds, it was a pair of nationally ranked 182s, as No. 10 Angus Arthur beat No. 14 Jordan Cooks 6-1. St. Johns moved up eight spots in this week's Fab 50 to No. 28, while Davison dropped two spots to No. 30. No. 42 Kuna, Idaho won the Red Halverson Memorial Invitational at Minico. They scored 305 points to 212.5 for No. 45 Centennial, Idaho. However, Centennial was without nationally ranked Hayden Tuma and another key contributor in Logan Blackwood. Results Perry (Okla.) came away with the title at the Jay Hancock Memorial in Yukon over a pair of short-handed nationally ranked teams, as they scored 163.5 points. Runner-up Collinsville, ranked No. 49, was without three-time state champion Will Stelzen (145); while third place Edmond North, ranked No. 15, was without a pair of nationally ranked wrestlers in Paxton Rosen (106) and Joel Dixon (170/182/220). The nationally ranked teams scored 153 and 145.5 points respectively. Results

FAIRFIELD, Conn. -- The Brown wrestling team jumped into the win column with a decisive 34-3 victory over Sacred Heart in dual meet action on Sunday. The Bears took all but one weight class, including a 12-0 major decision for freshman Steven Galiardo (Chicago, Ill.) at 149 and junior Ophir Bernstein's (Allen, Texas) 10th pin of the year in the 184-pound weight class. "I am excited for the results today," said Head Coach Todd Beckerman, who earned his first dual meet victory at the helm of the Bears. "We bounced back from a tough dual on Saturday and competed hard for seven minutes in every match. We will use this momentum heading into our Alumni and Family Weekend duals. Coach Lausier is building something special at Sacred Heart and I am excited to continue this border state rivalry." Bernstein, ranked ninth in the country in the 184-pound weight class according to the latest Amateur Wrestling News poll, improves to 23-6 overall on the season and is now 10-1 in matches decided by fall. The junior captain pinned Tomasz Filipkowski in 4:40. Galiardo's 12-0 major decision over Alex Harnsberger was followed by a second straight Brown shutout in the shape of freshman Justin Staudenmayer's (Plymouth Meeting, Pa.) 4-0 win against Casey Mitchell at 157. Junior Ricky McDonald (Carson City, Nev.) and sophomore Augustus Marker (Castle Rock, Colo.) each prevailed 7-2 at 174 and 197, respectively, while rookie Ryder Cavey (Eldersburg, Md.) capped the day with a 9-3 triumph in the heavyweight class.

GREELEY, Colo. -- Trey Andrews found himself at the end of the order against Sunday's PAC-12 opponent Cal Poly, an unfamiliar place for the 125-pouder. Nevertheless, he intended on ending the dual the same way he normally begins them: with a victory. Andrews' 6-2 decision against Cal Poly senior Britain Longmire gave Northern Colorado a 19-17 victory in exciting fashion. After Northern Colorado's Cole Briegel (Burlington) lost 6-4 in SV1, the Mustangs led 17-13 with two matches remaining. Henry Chirino (Brandon, Fla.) got three points back for the Bears with an 8-4 decision. It was then time for Andrews (Safford, Ariz.) to put it away. Andrews and Britain labored through a scoreless first period, and Andrews led 1-0 after the second via an escape. Andrews logged a two-point nearfall, an escape and a takedown in the final period to bring the Bears to victory. "I was very glad the dual came down to those two guys at the end," head coach Ben Cherrington said of Chirino and Andrews. "They've been very consistent all year long. Cal Poly's Devon Lotito pinned Sonny Espinoza (Pueblo) in 1:04 to start the dual in the 131-pound match, but Northern Colorado's Nick Adams (Monument) responded with a 6-4 decision against Jacob Leon to get three points back in the 141 match. Beau Roberts (Boise) then suffered a 15-6 major decision loss to Kyle Chene in the 149-pound bout. At 157 pounds, Michell Polkowske (LaJara) then gathered four points for the Bears thanks to a 15-1 major decision against Luke McDonald. Polkowske benefitted from three takedowns, two nearfalls, a reversal and a riding-time point. He logged 2:11 of riding time after one period, 3:32 after the second and ended with 5:09. Charlie McMartin (Boise) tied the match at 10 with a 7-2 decision against Travis Berridge, but the Mustangs retook the lead in the 174-pound match as Dominic Kastl recorded a15-5 major decision against Josh Van Tine (Broomfield). "It took a little while to figure the kid out, but when (McMartin) saw an opening, he nailed him," Cherrington said. "He built his lead, he was excited and I really believe that win carried us through the dual. The emotions were high and guys were excited after that." Trailing 14-10, Nick Bayer (Maple Valley, Wash.) earned at 10-3 decision against Sean Dougherty. Briegel lost the next bout, setting the stage for Chirino and Andrews. "We have one more tough PAC-12 dual next Friday at Boise and then we move into our conference schedule," Cherrington said. "From here on out, every match is going to be tough. Our conference has grown immensely, and every team has gotten better, and we're one of those teams. It's my hope that these guys take some belief from these last two matches, winning two duals against PAC-12 schools. That's a big deal for us." The Bears will face the Broncos of Boise State -- Cherrington's alma mater -- at 7 p.m. Friday in Boise. Results: 133 -- Devon Lotito (CP) pinned Sonny Espinoza (NC) 1:04 141 -- Nick Adams (NC) dec.

Kent, Ohio -- The Central Michigan wrestling program improved to 4-2 in Mid-American Conference competition with a convincing victory at rival Kent State Sunday afternoon, 21-12. The Chippewas (8-6, 4-2 MAC) built an early 9-0 lead behind their trio of ranked lightweights and were awarded bonus points on an injury default by No. 6 Ian Miller at 157 pounds to extend the lead to 15-3. Redshirt freshman No. 12 Corey Keener opened the dual with a 8-3 decision over Alfredo Grey behind three takedowns and riding time, two of which came in the second period where he took control of the match. Senior Joe Roth, ranked No. 16 at 133 pounds by InterMat, extended the lead with a 3-1 decision over Mack McGuire and it was a 9-0 CMU advantage after No. 9 Zach Horan defeated Tyler Small by decision, 5-1. After a scoreless first period, Horan started the second on bottom and reversed Small before turning him to his back for a three-point nearfall. Small was able to earn an escape point in the third, but Horan's lead was too much to overcome. The Golden Flashes looked to be closing the gap as Mike DePalma earned a decision over senior Scott Mattingly at 149 and Miller held a 5-2 lead over Smith, but Miller was unable to continue the match at the 5:31 mark due to an injury, awarding the Chippewas six bonus points. Redshirt freshman Nick Becker extended the lead to 18-3 with a decision over Tyler Buckwalter at 165 pounds, 5-1, and No. 8 Mike Ottinger earned his third-straight one-point victory over Caleb Marsh, 2-1. Ottinger held 1-0 lead after the second period and was able to prevent Marsh from escaping long enough to accumulate the necessary riding time to secure the victory and seal the match for the Maroon and Gold. CMU is back on the road next Sunday, Feb. 2 when it travels to take on MAC affiliate Old Dominion. Results: 125: No. 12 Corey Keener (CMU) dec.

ITHACA, N.Y. – The Cornell wrestling team remained unbeaten in dual meet competition with a strong 29-9 victory over Rutgers in front of more than 2,800 fans on Sunday afternoon at Newman Arena. The Big Red improved to 7-0 on the season, while the Scarlet Knights fell to 9-4. In front of a crowd of 2,833 fans there to watch two of the EIWA's best while raising funds for Hospicare of Ithaca, the Big Red scored two pins and a couple major decision victories while losing two of its three matches in overtime by a total of four points. The dual win was Cornell's 31st straight against EIWA opponents and its 47th consecutive against unranked teams. Sophomore Nahshon Garrett opened the dual with a dominant fall over Sean McCabe of Rutgers. Garrett's 13th straight win was locked down with Garrett leading 15-3 late in the third as he was able to take McCabe down to his back and secure the pin to give the home team an early 6-0 team lead. Rutgers got on the board at 133 as Vinnie Dellefave captured a disputed 2-1 overtime win over No. 12 Mark Grey after the freshman was hit for a penalty point in overtime for an illegal hold. That handed the Scarlet Knight grappler the upset after each wrestler earned escapes during regulation to send the match into sudden victory. Senior Mike Nevinger ran out to a 5-0 first period lead, escaped a dangerous spot that allowed Rutgers' Tyson Dippery a two-point nearfall in the second and claimed a pair of three-point nearfalls in the third en route to a strong 13-2 major. With a 10-3 Big Red lead, Rutgers brought the match as close as it would get with its second win, a toss-up match at 149 pounds between Conner David and Ken Theobald. Theobald's early first period takedown was the difference, and though David was able to ride out the Rutgers' wrestler in the third, he couldn't turn him to even the match as the Scarlet Knights took a 3-1 victory to get within 10-6 in the dual. Eighth-ranked Brian Realbuto dominated Anthony Perotti at 157 pounds, earning a pair of first period takedowns before riding his opponent out in the third for a 6-1 triumph. Realbuto logged nearly three minutes in riding time to send the home team into halftime with a 13-6 lead. The intermission saw Cornell honor two with induction into the Hall of Distinguished Wrestling Alumni, as John Keib '91 and Jim Stanec '01 were both celebrated. The Big Red ran away with the dual after halftime, winning the first four matches after the break starting with Dylan Palacio's 10-4 victory over Nick Visicaro at 165 pounds. The freshman registered the only four takedowns in the match and used 2:27 of ride time for the decision. In arguably the most exciting match of the day, Duke Pickett won a 4-2 overtime thriller against Phillip Bakuckas. Going into the third period scoreless, Pickett escaped 10 seconds into the third to take a 1-0 lead. Bakuckas was able to earn a takedown with two seconds left in regulation, but Pickett was able to kick his way out for an escape at the buzzer to send it to overtime as the crowd went crazy. Both wrestlers took shots in the sudden victory session, but it was Pickett who earned a takedown 18 seconds before the ride-outs began for the 4-2 decision. Gabe Dean didn't need any extra time, as he dominated fellow freshman Anthony Messner from the opening whistle, earning the first of his four first period takedowns just 14 seconds in. After Messner chose down to open the second, Dean was able to turn him successfully three times, twice for three points and another for two points to build a 16-4 lead. The fourth turn earned yet another five count, but ended with Dean repositioning and getting Messner's shoulders square for the pin at 4:20 to seal the dual win for the Big Red at 26-6 with two matches remaining. At 197 pounds, Jace Bennett controlled Hayden Hrymack on his way to an 11-2 major decision win. Bennett earned two takedowns and three escapes in the first five minutes to build a 7-2 lead, then turned Hrymack in the third for a three-point nearfall and earned a ride time point to close out the Big Red's team scoring. Rutgers and No. 18 Billy Smith was able to escape its own upset bid at heavyweight with a 3-2 overtime triumph over Jacob Aiken-Phillips. Both wrestlers earned escapes in regulation to go into sudden victory tied 1-1. After that resulted in no scoring, Aiken-Phillips chose down during the first ride-out period and escaped 21 seconds in. Smith escaped 10 seconds into the second ride-out period and earned a penalty point when Aiken-Phillips was called for locking hands. The Big Red junior couldn't muster a match-winning takedown in the final 20 seconds as the Scarlet Knights pulled within 29-9. Cornell will continue Ivy League competition when it visits Penn (1 p.m.) and Princeton (6 p.m.) on Saturday, Feb. 1.

Alex Kocer (149) and Cody Pack (157) each won tightly-contested bouts to seal the 18-14 win over Air Force (7-5, 0-2 WWC). "I'm glad to see the fight we had today," head coach Chris Bono said. "It's great to come away with a win and see the guys continue to buy in." Trailing 14-12 entering the 149 match, Kocer user a three-point nearfall at 3:17 to tie Natrelle Demison 4-4 entering the third period.
