The SUNY Oneonta wrestlers traveled to Williams College yesterday for a quad meet that was postponed from Saturday due to Winter Storm Nemo. The Red Dragons came away with a 1-2 record for the day, as they battled No. 12 Wesleyan, Western New England and the hosts.
Leading Oneonta was junior
Ben Mikac (Williamsville/Williamsville East) and freshman
Shaun Gillen (Bohemia/Connetquot), who both went 3-0 on the day. Mikac recorded two decisions and had a forfeit win in his three bouts while Gillen recorded a decision, a major decision and a tech fall.
Juniors
Chad Obzud (Cohoes/Lansingburgh) and
Dan Graff (LaGrangeville/Arlington) each recorded a pair of wins in their three bouts. Obzud pinned Dan Kuratnik of Williams in his second match of the day. Graff recorded a decision and a tech fall.
Oneonta will host RIT this coming Saturday in its final dual meet of the season. On Mar. 1-2, the Red Dragons will compete in the NCAA Northeast Regional qualifying tournament at WPI.
