"Joey looked awesome. He was on top of his game," said Weiss. "He completely controlled the bout against Doto. It wasn't as close as the score indicates."
Mosley earned a second-place finish and a trip to the NCAAs despite being hampered by a separated shoulder. He swept Scott Pasquini of Princeton 6-0 before taking down Shawn Thomas of Syracuse 8-5 in the quarters. In the semis, Mosley edged out Cornell's Joe Tucceri 4-3 to secure the NCAA spot.
In the finals, Mosley faced No. 1 seed Rick Springman of Penn. Unfortunately, he got caught in a tough position and Springman was able to get the pin.
"Because Ed was injured and not 100 percent, we focused on getting to the finals and securing a spot for NCAAs," Weiss said. "His shoulder was a concern but he got the job done."
Rechul continued to impress as he wrestled to a second place finish at heavyweight. After a first-round bye, Rechul dominated ESU's Rich Koehler 8-3 in the quarters.
In the semis, he pulled out an exciting victory over nemesis Seth Charles of Cornell, who had defeated Rechul in three close matches this season. This time, Rechul took the match 3-2 and ensured himself second place. After a scoreless first period in the finals, Rechul lost a tight 3-2 bout to Penn's Bandele Adeniyi-Bada.
"Dawid did a great job," said Weiss. "After his losses to Charles earlier this season, I kept saying he would beat him when it counted. And he did. With a trip to nationals on the line, he wrestled a terrific match."
