Lourdes beat Rio Grande (Ohio), 29-22, and barely lost to Georgetown College, 27 to 28 on Saturday in Georgetown, Ky. The split featured competitive duals against two teams who received votes in the latest NAIA poll, just like Lourdes.

Five Lourdes wrestlers scored points against Georgetown opponents in the slim one-point dual loss: Mason Ducat, Cole McKinley, Ayden Wilson, Dominico Migliori and Collin Sullivan. Migliori earned six team points for the Gray Wolves in his win over Georgetown's Jackson Burger.

Lourdes beat Rio Grande (Ohio) by seven to leave Kentucky with a split. Mason Ducat and Dominico Migliori once again scored six team points each for the Gray Wolves. Jayden Gordon and Ty Cobb also won their matchups with five-point team victories to avenge their Georgetown losses.

Quoting Coach Kelly
"I'm proud of the way that our guys competed today," Coach Kelly said. "We competed against two quality opponents from the toughest wrestling conference in the country, and we split the matches with an opportunity to win both of them. However, I am disappointed that we failed to take advantage of several opportunities against ranked opponents. We will get back to work on Monday in preparation for two huge dual matches against our conference opponents."

Next Meet
Lourdes takes on WHAC opponent Defiance on Friday, Jan. 16 at 7pm at home in the Ebeid Rec Center.
