This is their first dual meet of the year after having wrestled in the Navy Classic tournament where they finished 8th I believe, behind winning Princeton. They have quite a few Redshirt seniors so this is an experienced team with several talented wrestlers. We should not overlook them and need to wrestle hard as we should beat them.
Projected Lineups:
125 McCabe vs R-So Ibraham Bandara
133 Giraldo vs R-Sr Vince Rodriquez (he finished 2nd in the Navy Classic)
141 Ashnault vs R-Fr Tejan Anthony
149 Dippery vs R-Sr Kenbeth Korong
157 Lewis vs R-Sr Greg Flournoy (best match of the night)
165 Perrotti vs R-Jr Patrick Davis
174 Backukas vs R-Jr Ryan Forrest
184 Gravina vs R-Jr Luke Ludke or R-So Andrew Thomas
197 Hrymack vs Fr Cameron Houston or Jr Anthony Rossi
285 Smith vs R-Fr Matt Voss
If we have a big enough lead after 157/165 it would be nice to see Parfumi/ Messner/Smith get a rest prior to Cornell.
