Oliver, Mulligan Winners as Edinboro Falls to 21st-Ranked Michigan

Jacob Oliver won 4-2 in sudden victory at 174 lbs.
EDINBORO, Pa. – Edinboro's marquee wrestling match of the season drew a good crowd to McComb Fieldhouse on Friday night, many in the maize and blue, but the Fighting Scots were unable to upset a Michigan team that came in tied for 21st in the latest NWCA Division I Top 25 rankings. Michigan would hand the Fighting Scots a 33-5 defeat.
 
Edinboro is now 10-9 with one match remaining on Sunday against MAC opponent Clarion. Michigan, members of the powerful Big Ten, improved to 7-6.
 
The night got off to a tough start for Edinboro, with Lucas Rodriguez (14-12) losing by technical fall, 23-5 (6:01), at 125 lbs. to 18th-ranked Jack Medley (16-10). The Wolverines would take an 11-0 lead with a forfeit at 133 lbs.
 
The 141 lbs. bout was decided by four nearfall points in the second period, as Michigan's Cole Mattin (14-11) won a 6-0 decision over Nate Hagan (10-8). Hagan was returning to the lineup after missing over a month with an injury.
 
Tyler Vath (12-12), who has a pair of tough matches this weekend, put up a good battle against ninth-ranked Kanen Storr (14-3) at 149 lbs. He would drop a 6-2 decision as Michigan's lead grew to 17-0.
 
Will Lewan, one of four ranked Wolverines in the Friday's lineup, followed with an 8-1 decision over Peter Pappas. Pappas is now 15-13, with Lewan moving to 18-5. Michigan would take a 26-0 lead Tyler Meisinger won by fall at 1:44 over Derek Ciavarro (11-13) at 165 lbs.
 
Edinboro would rally with back-to-back wins at 174 and 184 lbs. Jacob Oliver, ranked 14th by InterMat, narrowly averted an upset as he rallied in the final seconds. The redshirt sophomore trailed 1-0 to Max Maylor with Maylor owning riding time, when Oliver escaped and gained a point for locked hands in the final six seconds. Tied at 2-2, they would go to sudden victory. Oliver struck quickly with a takedown nine seconds into the period for the 4-2 win. He improved to 21-4 with his 11th straight win.
 
Cody Mulligan (16-11) followed with an 8-7 decision over JT Correll. A back-and-forth first period saw Mulligan record two takedowns for a 5-3 lead. The two traded reversals in the second period, with a late Correll escape making it 7-6 after two periods. Mulligan would record an escape midway through the third, with Correll picking up a stalling point in the final five seconds. Edinboro would be deducted a team point after the match for unsportsmanlike conduct.
 
Dylan Reynolds (17-10) would suffer a narrow 8-6 loss in an evenly-contested match at 197 lbs. to Bobby Striggow (16-8). Reynolds would lead 4-2 after one period thanks to a pair of takedowns, with Striggow narrowing it to 5-4 after two periods. A quick escape to start the third evened the match at 5-5, and Striggow recorded the winning takedown with 1:24 to go. Reynolds would finally escape with 15 seconds left, but Striggow owned 2:28 in riding time.
 
Jon Spaulding met second-ranked Mason Parris at heavyweight. A game Spaulding would drop a 10-1 major decision as Parris improved to 26-0. Spaulding is now 23-8.
 
Edinboro wraps up the regular season on Sunday hosting Clarion at 1 p.m. The Fighting Scots will recognize five seniors on Senior Day prior to the match.
