Seven wrestlers finish the tournament undefeated; Carter Baer gets ranked win against No. 33 Logan Messer of George Mason
ITHACA, N.Y. – The Binghamton wrestling team put up a strong showing Sunday at the Big Red Invitational at the Ithaca College Athletics and Events Center.
All 19 of Binghamton's wrestlers who competed won at least one match throughout the round robin tournament, with seven of them finishing the day undefeated. The Bearcats completed the tournament with an overall record of 54-21. Among those victories, No. 28 Carter Baer picked up his third win against a ranked opponent this season when he defeated No. 33 Logan Messer of George Mason 6-3 en route to posting a 3-0 record in his 174 lb., bracket.
"We put together a strong week of training, and it showed in our performance today," said Binghamton Head Wrestling Coach Ryan LeBlanc. "Our guys found ways to win tight matches and made noticeable progress in the areas we have been emphasizing. It was a solid step forward, and we will keep building on it as we head into the rest of the season."
Highlights
In his first match of the day, Baer trailed Messer 2-1 heading into the third period. After Baer escaped nine seconds into the third, he recorded a takedown to take a 5-2 lead. Messer would not escape Baer until there were seven seconds remaining in regulation, but the Bearcat picked up an extra point for recording 1:43 of riding time to get the 6-3 victory. Baer followed that performance with an 18-3 technical fall over Sacred Heart's John Rowland and an 8-1 decision over Brown's Drew Clearie to finish the day with a perfect 3-0 record.
Dillon Arrick (4-0 at 133 lbs.), Caleb Sweet (4-0 at 149 lbs.), Fin Nadeau (4-0 at 157 lbs.), Jordan Brown (4-0 at 157 lbs.), Marco Albanese (4-0 at 165 lbs.) and Quinn Funk (4-0 at 197 lbs.) also went undefeated at the Big Red Invitational.
