After a well-fought 3-4 loss the previous night in the 125-pound weight class, sophomore Kevin El-Hayek dominated his foe, Peter Aguado, wrestling aggressively for an 8-5 win.

At 133-pounds, sophomore Matt Picarsic absolutely demolished his opponent Keith Borgaro, winning with a technical fall at 6:33.

At 165 pounds, junior Tom Kiler had one of the most exciting matches of the night, coming from behind in the second period to almost pin Jason Holder and going on to claim an 8-6 win.

At heavyweight, Rechul faced Nicholas Zeras, another massive opponent. But this time Rechul's skill outweighed Zeras's size, as he dominated the entire match for a final score 9-0.
