MATCH STORYLINES
  • The Edinboro wrestling team saw its four match winning streak come to and last Friday with a 24-12 loss to top-ranked Oklahoma State. Despite the loss, the Fighting Scots moved up one spot in the latest USA Today/NWCA Division I Coaches Poll, now sitting at 23rd, and moved into InterMat's Dual Rankings in 24th. The Fighting Scots enter the regular season finale against Cleveland State with a 7-5 record and are once again EWL regular season champions with a 5-0 record. A Cleveland State team that is even younger than Edinboro shows a 2-7 record and is 1-3 in EWL competition. 
  • Edinboro will recognize three seniors prior to the Cleveland State match. Chase Delande, Shawn Reynolds, and Anthony Rivera will be honored prior to the match. In addition, the Edinboro wrestling team will celebrate the Muscle Movement Foundation's "Pin Muscle Disease Night". This marks the second straight year the wrestling program will take part in the cause.     
  • Edinboro ran its EWL winning streak to 22 straight matches with a 28-9 win over Lock Haven two weeks ago. Edinboro has not lost an EWL dual since a 19-18 defeat to Pittsburgh in their last EWL dual in 2012-13. The Fighting Scots are seeking their fourth straight undefeated regular season with a win over Cleveland State.     
  • Edinboro rang in the New Year with an impressive performance while competing against a strong field in the Southern Scuffle. The Fighting Scots finished sixth out of 23 teams, with six of the twelve wrestlers entered earning medals.  Sean Russell (125 lbs.), Patricio Lugo (149 lbs.), and Dakota Geer (184 lbs.) brought home fourth place finishes.  Korbin Myers and Billy Miller finished seventh at 133 lbs. and heavyweight, respectively, while Chase Delande was eighth at 157 lbs. Oklahoma State won the team title.
  • All five of Edinboro losses this season have been to nationally-ranked teams. The Fighting Scots began the season with duals against three nationally-ranked opponents.  They opened with a 24-13 loss at sixth-ranked Virginia Tech, then dropped a 20-16 decision to 22nd-ranked Pittsburgh in the home opener. That was followed by a 20-13 loss to 11th-ranked Lehigh. Edinboro would later fall to 10th-ranked North Carolina State, 24-13, at the Pitt Duals, and last Friday suffered a 24-12 defeat to top-ranked Oklahoma State. Edinboro owns a 22-10 win over 25th-ranked Rider.    .
  • The Fighting Scots won their sixth straight PSAC Championship and 11th in the last 12 years in December. Edinboro finished with 156.5 points in the 12-team field, with Lock Haven the next closest competitor with 132 points. Edinboro had seven wrestlers reach the finals, and five came away with titles. Sean Russell and Patricio Lugo won their second individual championships at 125 and 149 lbs., respectively. Meanwhile, three wrestlers were first-time winners -- Korbin Myers (133 lbs.), Ty Schoffstall (174 lbs.), and Dakota Geer (184 lbs.). Chase Delande (165 lbs.) and Billy Miller (hwt.) came in second, with Fritz Hoehn (165 lbs.) and Dylan Reynolds (197 lbs.) fourth, and Ozzy Lugo (141 lbs.) fifth. Head coach Tim Flynn has now won 17 PSAC championships in his 20 seasons.  In addition, Edinboro has now tied Lock Haven for the most PSAC titles with 19.      
  • The Fighting Scots finished tenth out of 35 teams at the Las Vegas Invitational. Four wrestlers placed, with Patricio Lugo finishing second at 149 lbs., Sean Russell third at 125 lbs., Austin Matthews fourth at 165 lbs., and Billy Miller sixth at heavyweight. Oklahoma State finished first.
  • The Edinboro lineup has six nationally-ranked wrestlers, according to InterMat. Sean Russell is currently ninth at 125 lbs., while Patricio Lugo is ranked 11th at 149 lbs. Austin Matthews and Billy Miller are ranked 13th at 165 lbs. and heavyweight, respectively. Dakota Geer is ranked 17th at 184 lbs., while Korbin Myers is 19th at 133 lbs.
