Wrestling Goes 3-0 in AAC Crossover Duals
Cleveland, GA - Reinhardt continued its successful season this Saturday at the AAC Crossover Duals which was hosted by Truett McConnell. The Eagles were matched up against Brewton-Parker, St. Thomas (FL), and Pikeville (KY) where they won every match comfortably.
Angel Banda (125), Domenico DiGena (140), Wyatt Higgins (165 & 174), and Jonathan Paramore (184) all went 3-0 on the day to help lead the Eagles. Banda had two pins from his matches, and DiGena ended up with 2 pins and a forfeit. Paramore has steadily improved since the beginning of the season and is now accumulating wins on his resume. Wiggins has proven to be solid wrestling at both 165 and 174 this season and he picked up a pin in his matches.
All-Americans Trevor Burdick and Matt Jenkins had an undefeated day in all of their matches. Burdick split time with Devin Griffen who is also having a superb season as the backup 157 wrestler. Burdick and Griffen both had pins on the day. Jenkins split time with Higgins at both 165 and 174. Jenkins went 2-0 with a pin and a tech fall.
At 149, CJ Shadinger and Dawson Bates got time on the mat. Shadinger went 2-0 with a pin and Bates was 1-0 with a pin. Easton Bishop finished 2-1 in his matches with one win coming from a tech fall.
Curt Thomas, who is shaping up to have an All-American season finished 2-0 on the day with a tech fall and one forfeit win. Thomas will be a wrestler that Coach Beddard and Coach Lee will depend on along with Jenkins and Burdick to go far into the NAIA National in a few weeks.
The team will have one more tournament next weekend before moving on to the AAC Championships on the weekend of February 17th. The AAC Championships will be held at Southeastern in southern Florida this year. The tournament next weekend is the Cumberland Open in Tennessee, which should be a very competitive tournament for the wrestlers.
Below are the final standings of each dual meet.
