Some final notes, it was tough watching Renda and Jack both lose in OT, but the matches were good and both Pack wrestlers made just the wrong move to lose. That’s collegiate wrestling. Next up on the schedule is the Midlands Championships in Evanston, IL. A tough tournament with lots of BigTen competition. Thanks for the two people (myself included) who joined in on the blog.

Correction on the team score, ODU wrestler punches Pyke which gives the Pack 6 points. 26-15 final.
