At 184, Adam Medeiros and Gavin Layman seemed destined for overtime near the end of their evenly-matched bout.  In the waning seconds, Medeiros scored a reversal and won the match 8-6.  The win put HU up 15-12.

A pin by ONU's Cash Thompson put the Polar Bears up 15-12 heading into the 285 match.  There, Heidelberg's Gabriel Martinez appeared to slip on the mat in the second period.  Ben DePrest seized the opportunity and secured the dual with a pin.
