Senior Jeffrey Ott came through in a big way for the Crimson, pinning Princeton’s Noah Ajram at 133.
“He did a great job for us the whole day,” Weiss said. “He wrestled tough from start to finish, which was what we needed from him.”
Another standout performance came from sophomore Josef Johnson. While the sophomore lost to both his opponents of the day, Johnson wrestled his No. 16 ranked Princeton rival to an overtime period.
“I mean, that’s a top kid he’s wrestling against and he did really well,” Weiss said. “He’s finally seeing that he can compete against the best of them, and he’s just improving every week.”
The last bout of the match proved unsuccessful, as senior Michael Mocco lost by decision to Tiger Abram Ayala at 184.
