OLIVET, Mich. -- The Heidelberg University Wrestling team went 2-2 at the Olivet College Duals on Saturday. The Berg posted wins over Muskegon and Henry Ford, but fell to King's College and Cornell College.  

On the day, Anthony Grecol was a perfect 4-0 on the afternoon. David Gelman, Travis Richardson, and Paul Wilson each racked up three victories.  

Heidelberg opened with a solid 28-15 win over Muskegon Community College. Buoyed by a pair of forfeits, HU's win was highlighted by David Gelman's first-period pin of Anthony Cage at 133.  Tristan Craddock, Anthony Grecol and Paul Wilson all picked up wins in contested weight classes. 

The Student Princes suffered a 22-18 loss to King's College in the second round.  Both squads won five bouts, but King's tacked on enough bonus points to emerge victorious. Gelman, Craddock, Grecol, Travis Richardson and Wilson earned victories. 

Cornell College took eight weight classes in the third round -- with Josh Gibson and Grecol earning the wins. Cornell won 34-7

Heidelberg used six wins to defeat Henry Ford College in the final dual of the day, 28-24. Gibson and Richardson had pins, Gelman and Richardson had tech falls and Leon Harrison and Wilson had wins.  

The Student Princes return to action on Dec. 5 at Baldwin Wallace for a conference dual. The match is set for a 7 p.m. start.
