Vitaly Radsky Goes Undefeated at Pitt Duals
1/9/2011 8:55:03 PM | Wrestling
PITTSBURGH, Pa. – The Davidson wrestling team fell to No. 20 Pittsburgh, 34-7 and Drexel, 26-21, but rallied with a 31-9 win over Millersville Sunday at the Pitt Duals in Fitzgerald Field House. Senior Vitaly Radsky led the Wildcats with a 3-0 record.
Radsky and junior Tyler Mullen were the lone Wildcats (2-3) to earn victories against the nationally-ranked Pitt (7-5) squad. Radsky earned a major decision at 141 pounds over Mike Tully, 9-1, while Mullen earned an overtime decision at 165 pounds over Ethan Headlee, 6-1.
Donnie Tasser (157 pounds) and Andy Vaughan (184 pounds) both earned pins to lead Pitt.
Davidson heavyweight Charlie Wolff competed against No. 4 Ryan Tomei, yielding a 4-1 decision.
In their next match, the Wildcats opened an 18-3 lead over Drexel (5-9), but were unable to hang on. The Dragons fell into the early hole after forfeiting the 125- and 149-pound bouts, while Radsky (141) pinned Josh Yurasits. Shelton Mack earned a 7-5 decision at 133 pounds for Drexel's lone victory in the first four bouts.
Drexel went on to take all but the heavyweight bout for the come-from-behind win, though. Down 14-18, Shaun Fausey won by fall at 184 pounds to effectively put the match out of reach, as the 'Cats had to forfeit at 197 pounds and givea Drexel a 26-18 advantage. Wolff claimed the final bout for the Wildcats with a 5-2 decision.
Davidson cruised past Millersville (0-5) in the final dual match of the day, winning eight bouts. Senior Alex Radsky earned a technical fall at 133 pounds, while Vitaly (141) earned a 9-5 decision over Mike Greck to cap his undefeated day. Scott Ray (149) earned a decision before Millersville ended the 'Cats shutout bid at 157 pounds. Mullen answered with a 9-1 major decision at 165. Shane Smith won by fall at 174 pounds for Millersville, but the 'Cats took the final three bouts as freshman Scott Patrick and sophomore Ike Crews were both victorious wrestling up one weight class. Wolff finished the day with a decision.
The Wildcats will host their first dual meet of the season in Belk Arena Thursday at 7 p.m. against Duke.
