ADA, Ohio -- After the first day of competition at the NCAA Region IV Men's Wrestling Tournament, the Heidelberg University Men's Wrestling team has four athletes still vying for a trip to the NCAA Championships.
Travis Richardson is in the semifinals of the 165 bracket, sitting 2-0. A win in his opening match on Saturday would punch his ticket to the NCAAs. A loss would send him on a quest for third place.
Hunting for that elusive third-place finish,
Lee Woods at 125,
Drew Miller at 149, and
Owen Frizzell at 184.
Josh Cornell (133),
Maddox Cade (141),
Aaron Cole (157),
Austin Dipzinski (174),
Manny Aller (197) and
Luke Chambers (285) were all eliminated on Friday.
Action concludes in Ada on Saturday.
