ERIE, Pa. -- The fifth-ranked Mercyhurst University wrestling team picked up its second shutout victory of the season on Tuesday night with a 43-0 blanking of visiting West Liberty in front of a raucous crowd at the Mercyhurst Athletic Center. The Lakers have now won seven straight to improve to 12-1 overall on the season while the Hilltoppers fell to 1-5. Mercyhurst, which improved to 11-3 lifetime against West Liberty, earned its first shutout win at Alderson-Broaddus by a final of 52-0 ten days ago. The Lakers had one victory via fall, two by technical fall, three by major decision, three by decision, and one by forfeit for their 43 team points on the night. The Bohince brothers took center stage to start the evening with redshirt sophomore, Willie, earning a 7-0 victory over West Liberty's Zach Brown to give the Lakers a 3-0 lead. He improved to 23-3 overall and remains perfect in duals this season at 13-0. Meanwhile, redshirt senior, Ryan, earned an 11-1 major decision victory over Joe Wagstaff for his eighth win of the year. Redshirt junior Kody Young went on the offensive from the outset against Anthony Craig, jumping in front by a 10-1 score after the first period. Young extended his lead to 16-3 after two periods and earned an early takedown in the third period to win via technical fall. The Brookville, Pennsylvania, native improved to 11-7 on the season and gave the Lakers a 12-0 cushion. Redshirt junior Jeremy Landowski followed with his 20th victory of the season after a 4-1 win over regionally-ranked Joel Paolo. Landowski is 20-3 and improved to 11-1 in dual competition. The NCAA Division II leader in technical falls, redshirt sophomore Francis Mizia, added to his lead on Tuesday night with an impressive 15-0 victory over David Schlieper. After an early takedown, Mizia earned a total of eleven back points in the first period to take a 13-0 lead after one. Schlieper chose defense to start the second and Mizia earned two more back points just 12 seconds in to end the match. He improved to 19-3 overall and 10-1 in duals. Redshirt juniors Angelo Bortoluzzi and August Mizia earned back-to-back major decision victories at 165 and 174 respectively to give the Lakers a 28-0 advantage at that point. Bortoluzzi defeated DeMadre Turner, 9-0, for his 19th win of the season while the elder Mizia followed with an identical 9-0 win for victory #20 on the year.

Sophomore Andrew Welton closed out the evening with a pin of Aaron Silverio exactly one minute into the second period. It was Welton's team-leading 11th victory by fall this season as he improved to 15-8 overall and 10-3 in duals.

QUOTES FROM COACH PATRIZI About Kelly's victory at 174: "That's probably the best riding that he's done, as far as trying to score points ... He was trying to add on the entire time, which is tough to do in that type of match. " On the success of Brown at 184: "Pat Brown has been an animal for us. He stepped into a tough situation and has not been afraid. He's here to score points and do anything he can to help this team score points." About Majoy's pin at 285: "I'm all for scoring points and not stopping. It's important for us to keep our foot on the gas pedal. It was great to see Nino attack."

We had a great attendance. Our guys came out and had a fantastic performance. I don’t know what it was. They were on fire out there.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. -- Heading into halftime, it appeared Lehigh would take a 9-6 advantage over Cornell in Sunday afternoon's dual match. Instead, sophomore Brian Realbuto showed he is back to form and reversed the score, figuratively and literally. The Big Red would go on to win a pair of overtime victories over ranked wrestlers after the break and go on for a 21-9 triumph over the Mountain Hawks. After giving up a four-point move in the opening seconds of his matchup with 16th-ranked Mitch Minotti, seventh-ranked Realbuto chipped away, chipped away until he was able to use a five-point move in the closing seconds for an 11-8 comeback win at 157 pounds, silencing the Lehigh home crowd. Top-ranked Gabe Dean later won his second match fo the weekend against a top five wrestler in sudden victory with a takedown and Jace Bennett earned his second win over a grappler ranked in the top 11 in eight days at 197 in the rideout sessions. Despite the lopsided final, the match was anything but dull. Three matches were decided in overtime, another three by three points or less. Even heavily favored wrestlers from 125 to 149 couldn't gain bonus points in the spirited dual. With the win, Cornell improved to 10-1, while the Mountain Hawks fell to 10-4. It was Cornell's fourth straight against the Mountain Hawks and its 39th straight against EIWA competitors.

No. 1 Minnesota won five of its first seven matches on Sunday against No. 6 Penn State, including major decisions by No. 4 Nick Dardanes (141) and No. 1 Dylan Ness (157), to build up just enough points to hold off the hard-charging Nittany Lions, 17-16, in State College, Pa. With the victory, the Gophers improve to 10-0 this season, including 6-0 in Big Ten competition. The loss, Penn State’s first at home since January 2011, drops the Lions to 8-2 (4-2) this season. Minnesota’s victory sets up a battle of unbeatens this Friday at Williams Arena, when the Gophers will host No. 2 Iowa, who also is 10-0 on the year. With Sunday’s win, Minnesota extends its unbeaten streak against Penn State to 13 matches, a run that stretches back to February 1998 and is tied for the second-longest unbeaten streak the Gophers actively hold over any Big Ten foe. The nation’s top-ranked team has now won 29 of its last 30 duals, including its last 17. In his first match since an odds-defying, third-period comeback a week ago, No. 1 Chris Dardanes opened Sunday’s dual at 133 against No. 9 Jimmy Gulibon. Tied at one in the match’s final 30 seconds, Dardanes scored a late takedown to defeat Gulibon 3-1, running his season record to 17-0 and earning a team-best seventh victory over a ranked opponent. Nick Dardanes followed at 141 with a 14-6 major decision over Kade Moss. Dardanes secured two takedowns in each period of the match, ultimately sealing the major decision by adding a point for riding time, a result which provided the Gophers with a needed bonus point in the dual. Following Penn State’s first win of the day after a late takedown-near fall combination broke open a 4-4 tie between No. 18 Zack Beitz and Jake Short at 149 and gave Beitz a 9-4 victory, Ness took on Cody Law. Following Dardanes’ lead, Ness notched a bonus point for the Gophers by earning a 9-1 major decision over Law. Like Dardanes, the deciding point to taking the major decision was scored on riding time. The win improved Ness’ record this season to 22-0. Prior to the intermission, No. 17 Nick Wanzek looked strong against Garett Hammond, controlling the pace and winning an 8-4 decision. The win snapped a three-match losing streak in dual completion for Wanzek and stretched the Gopher lead to 14-3 at the dual’s midway point. In the eighth installment of their rivalry, No. 3 Logan Storley and No. 4 Matt Brown started the action following the break, with Brown edging Storley 4-1 to improve to 5-3 all-time in the series. At 184, No. 11 Brett Pfarr took control of his match in the second and third periods, and began looking for a major decision late over No. 16 Matt McCutcheon, cutting him loose after finishing several takedowns but ultimately settling for an 11-5 decision. Pfarr’s victory would be the last for a Minnesota grappler on the day as the Nittany Lions mounted a comeback. Trailing 17-6, Penn State won the dual’s final three matches, first with an upset at 197 where No. 6 Morgan McIntosh defeated No. 1 Scott Schiller, 7-4, then with a narrow victory at 285 where No. 6 Jimmy Lawson held off No. 13 Michael Kroells, 3-1. With his team leading by five, true freshman Ethan Lizak removed his redshirt and made his collegiate dual debut for the Gophers in his home state against No. 8 Jordan Conaway. Though Lizak dropped a major decision, 13-3, by avoiding a tech fall or a pin, he successfully clinched the victory for Minnesota. Following their successful trip to Happy Valley, the Gophers return to the Twin Cities for their final home dual of the season this Friday, when top-ranked Minnesota hosts archrival and fellow unbeaten, No. 2 Iowa, at 6 p.m. CT at Williams Arena. The contest will be broadcast live from the Barn on the Big Ten Network, with updates provided throughout on the Gopher Wrestling Twitter feed. Seats are still available for the dual.

The Monarchs are now 9-3 in dual action on the season, with their three losses coming to top-25 opponents. "We are proud of how our guys competed hard for seven minutes today against Kent State," said Head Coach Steve Martin. "We knew coming in it was going to be a scrap. I give KSU credit, as they always get up for our match. The matches against Buffalo and KSU were both hard fought and what I was impressed with was the amount of bonus points we put up this weekend and the little things, like Michael Hayes taking Mack McQuire down to the wire to how hard we fought. We are getting better each week and we look forward to the Ohio dual on Friday!" Kent State jumped out to an early 4-0 lead, as No. 2 Ian Miller recorded a 19-5 major decision over Devin Geoghegan at the 157-pound weight class. Old Dominion took control of the match, winning the next four bouts. No. 14 Tristan Warner once again recorded a win at 165 pounds, defeating Tyler Buckwalter by an 8-1 decision. He is now a perfect 11-0 in dual meets with just six left in the season. Austin Coburn followed Warner with a 3-2 decision at 174 pounds to give ODU the 6-4 lead. No. 2 Jack Dechow earned four more points for ODU (10-4) by taking down Jerald Spohn by a 16-6 major decision. He is now 19-1 on the year and 10-1 in dual action. No. 22 Kevin Beazley recorded the fourth-straight win for ODU and his 21st win of the season with an 8-5 decision over No. 24 Cole Baxter, giving the Monarchs a 13-4 advantage. No. 33 Mimmo Lytle recorded the Golden Flashes second win of the day in the heavyweight bout. No. 29 Jake Henderson fought hard with Lytle, but fell 4-3 in tiebreaker three due to Lytle’s 26 seconds of riding time. ODU still held a lead over Kent State, but it was only a 13-7 advantage with four matches left. No. 17 Brandon Jeske increased the ODU lead to 16-7 when he took down Del Vinas by a 6-2 decision. No. 15 Mack McGuire notched the last win for the Golden Flashes, winning the 133-pound bout by a 4-3 decision. With two bouts left, ODU held a 16-10 advantage over Kent State.

Sophomore Tim Lambert opened the dual with a 12-1 major decision over Sean McCabe at 125 pounds before Eric Montoya (133) and 10th-ranked Anthony Abidin each knocked off ranked opponents. Montoya trailed No. 17 Scott DelVecchio, 4-1, in the second period before a pair of takedowns gave him a 7-4 win.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The No. 16-ranked University of Michigan wrestling team took eight of 10 matches, earning bonus points in five, to claim a dominant 34-6 win against Indiana on Sunday afternoon (Jan. 25) at the Hoosiers' University Gymnasium. Among the individual victories, the Wolverines posted a pin, a technical fall and two major decisions to improve to claim their second straight Big Ten Conference dual win. The Wolverines never trailed in the dual, winning the first five bouts, including a forfeit at the opening weight for junior/sophomore Conor Youtsey's second six-point victory of the weekend at 125 pounds. Fifth-year senior Zebulon Hilyard earned his first collegiate dual win in the subsequent match at 133 pounds, using a second-period rideout and a quick reversal in the third to defeat Alonzo Shepherd, 3-0. He ended the bout with 1:18 riding-time advantage. The Wolverines poured on points en route to consecutive major decisions from sophomore/freshman George Fisher and freshman Alec Pantaleo at 141 and 149 pounds, respectively. Fisher, ranked 17th, rolled to an 11-1 win over Sean Brown, scoring on three takedowns -- two in the first period -- and tilted him for two back points in the third. He also boasted 4:38 riding-time advantage. Pantaleo finished on seven takedowns, including five in the opening frame, to beat Trevor Moody, 14-6, and improve to 5-0 in Big Ten dual action. Sophomore Brian Murphy, ranked 15th, earned a stingy 6-1 decision over Luke Blanton at 157 pounds. He scored quickly on a go-behind in the first, added another out of second-period scramble and rode out the third, accumulating 2:50 in riding-time advantage. The Hoosiers got on the board with back-to-back decisions from their ranked wrestlers at 165 and 174 pounds. Seventh-ranked Tyler Walsh claimed the marquee match against junior/sophomore Taylor Massa, ranked 10th, at the former weight. Massa was in deep on a leg in the first period, but Walsh scrambled to secure a takedown and put the Wolverine on his back for two points. He also added a reversal in the waning moments of the third. Sophomore Domenic Abounader, ranked 10th, regained the momentum for the Wolverines with a dominant 15-0 technical fall Jake Masengale at 184 pounds. Abounader scored quickly in the first period on an inside trick out of a bodylock before turking him for three sets of three-point near falls. He struck again on a single leg early in the second and turked Masengale for two to end the bout at the 4:25 mark. It was Abouander's third technical fall of the season. Fifth-year senior Max Huntley, ranked eighth, cruised to a 10-3 decision over Luke Sheridan at 197 pounds, scoring on three takedowns -- one in each frame -- and added a quick reversal third. After earning a stall point midway through the third and with the major in mind, he secured his final takedown late but had to settle for the decision victory. Sophomore heavyweight Adam Coon, ranked seventh, put an exclamation point on the Wolverine victory, immediately tossing Garret Goldman to secure his ninth fall of the season at the 2:05 mark. Coon has pinned four of his five Big Ten dual opponents. The Wolverines will return home next Friday (Jan. 30), hosting four-time defending NCAA champion Penn State at 7 p.m. at Cliff Keen Arena.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- The No. 14 Virginia wrestling team used bonus points at 133 and 165 pounds to slip past No. 10 Pittsburgh, 17-16, Sunday afternoon in front of a full house at Memorial Gymnasium. The Cavaliers (10-3, 2-0 ACC) handed Pitt (7-4, 2-1 ACC) its first-ever ACC dual loss while stretching their Memorial Gymnasium win streak to 32 duals. Virginia has not lost a home dual at Mem Gym since Jan. 16, 2011, against Penn. Nick Herrmann (Jr., Amarillo, Texas), George DiCamillo (R-So., Highland Heights, Ohio), Andrew Atkinson (R-Fr., Lynchburg, Va.), Nick Sulzer (R-Sr., Cleveland, Ohio) and Zach Nye (R-Jr., Enola, Pa.) each scored wins for the Cavaliers. Both teams won five bouts. "It certainly was not the way we drew it up - that was about as crazy as a dual meet gets," Virginia head coach Steve Garland said. "We knew it was going to be a fight because they are such a tough, hard-nosed group of guys. For the last 364 days, we have been training for that type of match. They embarrassed us last year and it stuck with us. I don't think we wrestled well, but I'm happy that our guys were able to fight through and grit out grimy, crazy, awesome wins like that. At the end of the day, in the blood round at nationals, those wins are what they look like. I'm proud of the fight. The heart and togetherness right now is where we need to be." The Cavaliers did not trail in the dual after jumping out to a 7-0 lead after two weights. At 125, Herrmann (11-5) trailed 5-3 early in the third period before reversing Dom Forys and then tilting him to get three back points and bring the crowd to its feet. He maintained the advantage the rest of the period, picking up the riding-time point for the 9-5 win. Ranked 13th nationally at 133, DiCamillo (21-6) dominated from start to finish in a 22-10 major decision over Ben Ress. He pounced quickly in the first period with a takedown and then three back points as he narrowly missed a pin. He went on to pile up takedowns and 2:14 of riding time to get UVa a bonus point. Pitt earned its first win at 141 as Nick Zanetta won 5-4 over Justin Van Hoose (Jr., Kirksville, Mo.). Zanetta finished with 1:15 in riding time to earn the bonus point and break the 4-4 deadlock at the end of the third period. The Panthers pulled within 7-6 when No. 20 Mikey Racciato downed TJ Miller (R-Fr., Medford, N.J.), 10-4, at 149. A battered Miller fended off Racciato's late push in the third period for another takedown, which would have given him the major decision and a team bonus point. Virginia got a key win at 157 when Atkinson (14-9) took down Ronnie Garbinsky in sudden-victory time for a 5-3 win. The hotly-contested bout almost did not go to overtime as Garbinsky was awarded a takedown just before the final buzzer of the third period. Garland challenged the call and after the official looked at the video replay, it was overturned as Garbinsky did not have full control, thus sending the match to sudden-victory time. UVa stretched its lead to 14-6 when Sulzer, ranked second nationally at 165, used a big third period to nab a 14-5 major decision over Troy Reaghard. Sulzer (21-1) led 5-2 early in the third period before wearing Reaghard down and piling up a trio of takedowns as well as a pair of penalty points following Reaghard stall warnings. In the featured match of the day, seventh-ranked Tyler Wilps of Pitt outlasted fifth-ranked Blaise Butler (R-Jr., Belvidere, Ill.), 6-2, at 174. Wilps held a 3-2 lead early in the third period before taking Butler (14-2) down and building his riding time to 1:16 to pick up the extra point. The Panthers cut their team deficit to a point, 14-13, at 184 as second-ranked Max Thomusseit dominated in a 21-6 technical fall over Tyler Askey (R-Fr., Newnan, Ga.). Thomusseit did not record any back points, so the Panthers earned just four points for the tech fall. In another battle of ranked foes, Nye (13-5) earned a 2-1 win in the first tiebreaker period over No. 17 Nick Bonaccorsi. Ranked 19th nationally, Nye maintained control for the full 30 seconds in the first portion of the tiebreaker, and then escaped in 12 seconds in the second portion. He held off Bonaccorsi's late takedown attempt to finish off the key win. Pitt took the heavyweight bout as Ryan Solomon downed Patrick Gillen (R-Jr., Shelton, Conn.), 4-3. Virginia hits the road for its next three duals before concluding the regular season on Feb. 19 at home against NC State. The Cavaliers travel to No. 9 Virginia Tech next Sunday for a 1 p.m. dual, then visit North Carolina on Feb. 7 for a 7 p.m. match. UVa visits No. 1 Iowa on Feb. 15 in the NWCA National Duals.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. -- Powered by seven bonus point wins No. 11 Lehigh returned to Leeman-Turner Arena at Grace Hall with a 40-6 win over visiting Franklin & Marshall Saturday afternoon. Sophomore Mitch Minotti and senior Santiago Martinez led the way with wins by fall to lead Lehigh’s attack. The Mountain Hawks won nine of the ten bouts overall to improve to 10-3 on the dual season. “That week off was definitely needed,” Lehigh head coach Pat Santoro said. “It was good to come back with a nice match today and now the focus moves to Cornell tomorrow.” Freshman Scott Parker set the tone for Lehigh at 125 with the first of two wins by technical fall on the afternoon. Parker built an 8-1 lead after one period behind two takedowns and two two-point near falls, and added five more takedowns to win 19-4 in 5:50. At 133, junior Mason Beckman scored a takedown in the final five seconds to secure a major decision, defeating Scott Stevens 14-6. Beckman controlled the match throughout, with five takedowns in the first six-and-a-half minutes, but was unable to turn Stevens from the top position despite building up well over two minutes of riding time. A penalty point for locked hands and an escape brought Stevens within 11-6 late, but Beckman scored in the final five seconds and added the riding time point to get the major decision. “Early on we were trying to get our feel for competition back,” Santoro said. “Once we did our guys started opening up a little bit and it was good to see so many guys score late in periods.” Franklin & Marshall’s lone win came at 141 as Robert Ruiz won by fall over sophomore Dean Somers who got the call as Randy Cruz was given a rest. Ruiz led 2-1 in the first period when he locked up a cradle and after a good fight from Somers finally secured the fall at the 2:32 mark bringing the Diplomats within 9-6. F&M falls to 2-5 in duals with the loss. Freshman Drew Longo posted his first career bonus point victory, racking up three third period takedowns to earn a 14-4 major decision over Tommy Quinlan at 149. Minotti’s first appearance in front of the home fans in 2014-15 was a quick one as he pinned Rob King in just 1:33 at 157. Minotti scored an early takedown then used an arm bar and a half nelson to secure the fall, which gave Lehigh a 19-6 lead at intermission. “Mitch really wanted to wrestle in Grace Hall,” Santoro said. “He went out and did what Mitch can do. He has a big one tomorrow but it was exciting to see him out here getting a pin.” The Mountain Hawks would eventually capture the final seven bouts of the dual including all five after the break. Following an 11-3 major decision by senior Marshall Peppelman over Andrew Francos at 165, Martinez posted his third pin in as many dual meet appearances, using an arm throw out of a Russian tie to put Gordon Bolig on his back for the fall in 1:28. Martinez has now won seven of his last eight official bouts overall with four pins in that time frame. “He’s feeling more explosive up at 174,” Santoro said of Martinez. “He’s feeling better each week and come March he’s going to be a different wrestler.” Junior Nathaniel Brown followed Martinez’s fall with Lehigh’s second technical fall of the dual, an impressive 20-5 victory over Anthony Mancini at 184. Brown nearly pinned Mancini early but had to settle for a 7-1 lead after one period before racking up six more takedowns before the match was stopped at 5:48. After eight consecutive bonus point wins to open the dual, the final two bouts ended in regular decisions. At 197, junior John Bolich overcame an early 4-1 deficit, defeating Charles Kerkesner 6-5 with the decisive point coming via 1:30 of riding time. Sophomore heavyweight Doug Vollaro broke open a 4-1 match with three late takedowns, but just missed out on the riding time point and had to settle for a 10-3 decision over Isaiah Cromwell in the final bout.

LAWRENCEVILLE, N.J. -- A week ago Warren Bosch put an exclamation point on Edinboro's 27-12 win over Kent State with a pin. On Saturday Bosch came through once again to help the Fighting Scots to a key Eastern Wrestling League victory at Rider. Bosch won in overtime over Greg Velasco 2-1 to give Edinboro a 20-16 win over the Broncs. The Fighting Scots, ranked fifth in InterMat's Tournament Rankings and 15th in the latest NWCA/USA Today Division I Coaches Poll, are now 10-4 overall and 3-0 in the EWL. Rider, ranked 25th in the NWCA poll, is now 7-5 and 1-1, respectively. Bosch and Velasco exchanged escape in the second and third periods to send the match into overtime. Neither wrestler scored in overtime. Bosch would start on the bottom for the first 30-second tiebreaker and escaped for a 2-1 lead. He then rode out Velasco, surviving a wild scramble, for the decision. Bosch improved to 12-15 while Velasco is 11-9. The match was tight throughout. Kory Mines, ranked 17th at 125 lbs., boosted his record to 24-6 with a 9-1 major decision over J.R. West. The Broncs took a 6-4 lead as Rob Deutsch pinned Anthony Rivera at 4:50 in the 133 lb. match. Rivera has now lost all five of his matches while filling in for third-ranked A.J. Schopp, falling to 3-10. Second-ranked Mitchell Port gave the lead back to Edinboro with a 15-4 major decision over Chuck Zeisloft at 141 lbs. Zeisloft, a national qualifier a year ago, trailed just 3-2 after one period, but Port would lead 7-2 after two periods and pull away for his 16th win by bonus points this season. He is now 26-0 and 122-15 for his career. Second-ranked Dave Habat squared off against 19th-ranked B.J. Clagon at 149 lbs. in the lone match between two ranked wrestlers. Habat jumped out to a 4-1 lead after one period, but Clagon pulled to within 6-5 after two periods. The redshirt freshman would knot the score with an escape, but a takedown and riding time gave Habat a 9-6 decision. He is now 25-1 and 123-25 for his career. Habat's victory gave Edinboro an 11-6 advantage, but Rider would win at 157 and 165 lbs. to move ahead 13-11. At 157 lbs., Kasey Burnett-Davis fell to 11-10 while just missing out on upsetting 18th-ranked Chad Walsh (20-5). Walsh's third-period escape was the only point in the 1-0 decision. Conor Brennan (5-3) followed with a 12-4 major decision over Casey Fuller (14-12). Edinboro would win the next two matches to reclaim the lead at 17-13. Patrick Jennings won his third straight match with a 4-3 decision over Ryan Wolfe (11-9). Jennings led 4-0 after two periods and hung on to improve to 23-8. The 184 lb. match between 13th-ranked Vic Avery and 2014 national qualifier Clint Morrison went into a tiebreaker with Avery prevailing 3-2. Tied at 1-1 after a scoreless minute of overtime, Morrison gained a 2-1 lead with an escape in the first 30-second tiebreaker. With Avery on the bottom, he would score the winning points on a reversal to improve to 21-6 while Morrison fell to 8-8. Vince Pickett returned to the lineup at 197 lbs., but the junior continued to struggle. Tied with Don McNeil (10-5) at 2-2 after two periods, Pickett would drop a 5-2 decision for his ninth straight loss while falling to 12-13.

ITHACA, N.Y. -- The winner of the Cornell-Penn dual has won at least a share of the Ivy League title every season for the last 28 years. If it's to be 29 that's good news for the Big Red. No. 7 Cornell rallied from a halftime deficit with a big second half, winning the meet's final six matches en route to a 26-9 triumph over the Quakers on Saturday afternoon at Newman Arena. The Big Red improved to 9-1 (3-0 Ivy) and extended its win streak over Ivy opponents to 66 in the process. The Big Red shut out the Quakers 18-0 over the final five matches, spurred on by a first period fall by sophomore Dylan Palacio over Ray Bethea to turn the tide of the dual and get the crowd of better than 2,100 back into the match. Consecutive overtime wins, including a late rally to get there for Duke Pickett, and another top-five win for Gabe Dean, was one of three consecutive matches the Big Red won by a single point or in overtime. Nahshon Garrett earned a takedown four seconds into the match and dominated throughout, earning two nearfall to take a 4-0 lead with 2:56 of ride time into the second period. He dominated throughout, building more than four minutes of ride time before closing the match with a takedown with 20 seconds left to take home the tech fall. Bricker Dixon earned a takedown in the final minute of the first period against NCAA qualifier Caleb Richardson to take a 2-1 lead into the second. After choosing down and adding a point with an escape, Dixon gave up a reversal to Richardson early in the third to tie the match at 3-3 and rode him out final the final 75 seconds to lock in the riding point and win 4-3. Jason Canfora picked up a first period takedown in the final 15 seconds to take a 2-0 lead into the second. A Canfora reversal made it 4-0, and after a Ryan Dunphy escape, the Penn wrestler picked up a stalling point to head into the final period up 5-1. Dunphy earned a late escape to keep the match from being a major, but the Quakers were able to take the 6-5 lead. T.J. Cobb's first period takedown ended up being the difference in the match, as Chris Villalonga's escape point in the first and then in the second after choosing down put the match into sudden victory. After a couple scrambles where Villalonga just missed picking up the two, Cobb was able to get the advantage for two and the win to give the Quakers a 9-5 advantage. Cornell got back within a point of the visitors at halftime when Brian Realbuto earned a 7-2 win over Brooks Martino to send the home team to the break trailing 9-8. After resuming action, Palacio had the biggest result of the day, shaking off an early takedown from Ray Bethea, escaping and tilting the Quaker for the fall to put the Big Red back into the lead. Pickett and Dean won consecutive sudden victory contests with takedowns, Pickett only coming after locking in riding time late in the third, allowing the escape and then picking up the match-tying takedown with 11 seconds remaining in regulation. Dean nearly had three late takedowns to win his match against fifth-ranked Lorenzo Thomas, but settled for the walk-off win after defending a Thomas shot. Jace Bennett won at 197 with a narrow 3-2 decision thanks to a third period takedown that not only put him into the lead at 3-1, but erased a ride time point for Canaan Bethea. An escape by the Quaker got him back within a point, but Bennett was able to hold him off for the win. At heavyweight, Jacob Aiken-Phillips was in control throughout against Penn freshman Patrick Garren, taking a 2-1 lead and nearly two minutes of ride time into the second. That ride time creeped to nearly four minutes heading into the third period, and a pair of takedowns for the Big Red senior clinched the 8-2 decision. Cornell returns to action when it visits No. 11 Lehigh tomorrow at 3 p.m. in Bethlehem, Pa.

FARGO, N.D.--North Dakota State University won seven of 10 matches including pins from 125-pound sophomore Josh Rodriguez and 149-pound redshirt freshman Clay Ream to push past Cal Poly 27-9 in a non-conference dual Friday, Jan. 23, before 377 spectators at the Bentson Bunker Fieldhouse. The Bison have won four straight dual matches to improve to 5-3 on the season, while Cal Poly drops to 1-11. The Mustangs wrestle at South Dakota State on Sunday. NDSU jumps back into Western Wrestling Conference action next weekend, traveling to Air Force on Friday, Jan. 30, and 18th-ranked Wyoming on Sunday, Feb. 1. "I think we're getting some momentum heading into the middle of our (Western Wrestling) conference duals. I know we started out a little slow, but we're heading in the right direction," said NDSU assistant coach Manny Rivera. "We're young and the experience is helping. These guys are looking better each time out. The more they wrestle, the better they are going to get." North Dakota State recorded four straight victories after Cal Poly's Dominic Kastl posted a 6-3 decision over Kurtis Julson (Inver Grove Heights, Minn.) in the 174-pound weight division. Julson drops to 12-8 overall and 4-4 in duals. NDSU 184-pound junior Hayden Zillmer (Crosby, Minn.) fell behind 2-1 early to the Mustangs' Nick Fiegener, but used two-point takedown to take a 3-2 lead after the first period. Zillmer, who is ranked 9th nationally, outscored Fiegener 6-1 over the final two periods to post a 9-3 win. It was the eighth dual win in eight tries for Zillmer, who improved to 24-4 overall. North Dakota State 197-pound redshirt freshman Tommy Petersen (Lakeville, Minn.) jumped out to a 10-3 lead after the first period with a pair of takedowns and two nearfalls against J.T. Goodwin. Petersen held off Goodwin's late rally to record a hard-fought 14-12 win. Petersen broke a four-match losing streak with his first dual victory in five tries and is now 9-11 on the season. NDSU 285-pound senior Evan Knutson (Wausau, Wis.) followed with an 8-3 decision over Cal Poly's Nicolas Johnson to put the Bison ahead 9-3. Knutson improved to 18-7 overall and 6-2 in dual action. North Dakota State received a boost when Rodriguez (Guadalupe, Calif.) recorded his first pin of the season at 6:58 over the Mustangs' Yoshito Funakoshi at 125 to extend NDSU's lead to 15-3. The 20th-ranked Rodriguez has won seven of his last nine matches to improve to 12-5 overall and 7-1 in duals. "I was thinking before the match, I hadn't got a pin yet. I was searching for the pin. I was patient, an opportunity opened up for me and I was able to capitalize on it," said Rodriguez. "I try to go out there with a clear mind. I always try to think positive and try to score points." Cal Poly stopped the Bison run when Victor Trujillo outlasted redshirt freshman Kyle Gliva (Inver Grove Heights, Minn.) for a 9-7 decision. Glive drops to 5-6 overall and 0-2 in duals. NDSU started another run with redshirt freshman Mitch Bengtson's 6-0 decision over Colton Schilling in the 141-pound weight class. Bengtson (St. Cloud, Minn.) is now 17-9 overall and 5-3 in duals. North Dakota State 149-pounder Ream (Wentzville, Mo.) followed with his sixth pin of the season at 1:39 over Jacob Leon to put the Bison ahead 24-6. Ream, who has won six of his last eight, improve to 18-9 overall and 7-1 in duals. "Our team is coming together right now. Our team chemistry is good. We've been focusing on individual aspects and what we need to improve on, and that's how the team has improved as a whole," said Ream. "I feel like we've really grown and we're finally becoming college wrestlers. The beginning of the season we were a little shaky, and now we're starting to get our feet under us and grow." NDSU redshirt freshman Grant Nehring (Kimball, Minn.) returned to the 157-pound weight division to earn an 8-2 decision over the Mustangs' Colt Shorts. Nehring, who wrestled at 165 in the last two duals, improved to 4-9 overall and 1-2 in duals. Cal Poly's Travis Berridge recorded a takedown midway in the first overtime to defeat redshirt freshman Trevour Chavez (Bethel, Alaska) 3-1. Chavez drops to 4-8 overall and 0-2 in duals.

VESTAL, N.Y. -- Binghamton (5-6, 3-1 EIWA) won six bouts and used a pair of bonus-point wins to forge a 22-14 victory over visiting Drexel (4-7, 1-1 EIWA) in an EIWA match Friday night at West Gym. The match began a weekend homestand that wraps up on Sunday when the Bearcats host Penn at 1 p.m. Senior 125-pound David White, ranked No. 27 in the NCAA Coaches' Panel, gave BU a quick 6-0 lead with a second-period pin. Then the Bearcats shrugged off some setbacks in the middle weights and rattled off five consecutive wins to end the match. "The guys did a great job tonight," head coach Matt Dernlan said. "Right out of the gate David (White) set the tone with his pin. He established momentum, dictated the action and when he had the opportunity to secure bonus points he did it." After White's win, Drexel responded with four straight wins to take a 14-6 lead. Redshirt freshman Zack Zupan got the comeback started with a 7-2 decision at 165. Zupan (14-11) snapped a 2-2 tie early in the third period with an escape and then added two takedowns for the final cushion. At 174, freshman Steven Schneider scored a key decision, working the edge of the mat for a takedown 38 seconds into overtime and a 4-2 win. From there, BU's upper weights flexed their muscle. Junior 184-pound Jack McKeever built three minutes of riding time in his 5-1 decision. Ranked No. 31 in the NCAA Coaches' Panel, McKeever improved to 15-7 overall. 7-4 in duals. Senior 197-pound Caleb Wallace then used a five-point second period to post an 8-0 major decision. Wallace had a takedown and back points and added another takedown and riding time in the third to give BU a 19-14 lead. Senior heavyweight Tyler Deuel, ranked No. 22, finished off the win with a comfortable 7-1 decision. He raised his record to 15-4 overall, 9-2 in duals. "Schneider's match was a huge swing match for us," Dernlan said. "Our backs were against the wall. Steven's been grinding it and he found a way to get it done. That was a big, mature win for a true freshman. I'm most proud of Caleb (Wallace), though. he was pretty down all week after the Columbia match and he carried that repsonsibility all week and I was proud that he not only got the win tonight for himself, but got a major decision. That put the match away and took the pressure off Tyler. It was great showing by our upper weights." On Sunday, Binghamton will see the fourth-ranked team in the EIWA in the Quakers. "Penn is one of the top three or four teams in the EIWA and we'll have to have our best effort," Dernlan said. "In his league there aren't any easy wins ... you have to fight for every match. That's what we want and that's why we came into the EIWA. We want to be battle-tested for the end of the year."
