“Brown’s guys were getting tired at the end of the match,” Gobbo said. “And we were able to capitalize on that…. We scored a lot of points in the third period today. Being more aggressive and wrestling hard the whole time helped a lot.”
With this win in the books, the Crimson is looking forward to its upcoming matches in the coming weeks.
“As a team, we are just looking to take this one game at a time,” Preston said. “Right now, we want to be thinking about beating Lehigh, and beating Columbia after them. Those are two teams that we were able to beat last year, so I really think we have it in us to take home the wins again.”
These two dual meets will mark the end of the team season for Harvard, and the squad looks to finish with the same mindset that it started the year with.
“We have two tough teams next weekend, but I think we’re wrestling really well as a team right now, and things are coming together for us,” Gobbo said. “We just have to keep the energy and positivity coming from the bench, stay aggressive, and wrestle tough.”
