"We wrestled well against a quality team," Head Wrestling Coach Justin Kihn said. "The guys have shown their ability to learn fast and improve over a short period of time. We are getting better every time we step on the mat. Shadrach [Brausch] had a great day today with two wins and one of them being a pin. He works hard and has a great approach to the sport. It is exciting to see him develop. Avery [Bair] also had a great performance today. He has seen high level competition these first two weeks. He had a great match against a tough opponent in the first round, then was able to pick up his first collegiate win with a pin in the second round."
