PITTSBURGH, Pa. – Lock Haven and No. 15 Pittsburgh both defeated Davidson, 31-6 and 39-6, respectively, in non-conference wrestling action Sunday at the Pitt Duals in Fitzgerald Field House.
Sophomores Anthony Elias (133 pounds) and Ian Solcz (174 pounds) earned the lone victories for Davidson (5-5) against Lock Haven (4-2). Elias also nearly defeated Pitt's No. 15 Shelton Mack, but was defeated in overtime, 3-1.
Elias' 6-3 decision over Matt Bryer pulled Davidson within one after the Bobby Rehm scored a major decision for the Bald Eagles at 125 pounds, but Lock Haven claimed the next four bouts, including a technical fall by Dan Neff at 141 pounds, to open a 19-3 lead. Solcz defeated Tyler Wood, 3-2, at 174, but the Bald Eagles concluded the match with a pair of decisions and pin at heavyweight by Harry Turner.
Philip Elias won by forfeit at 125 pounds to give Davidson an early 6-0 lead against Pittsburgh, but starting with Mack's slim victory over Anthony Elias, Pitt's lineup, which included five nationally ranked wrestlers, claimed the remaining bouts. The Wildcats fought hard though, only surrendering one pin to No. 9 Zac Thomusseit heavyweight.
Davidson will return to action Tuesday, Jan. 22 at 7 p.m. at Gardner-Webb for its second Southern Conference match of the year.
