12/7/2013 10:24:00 PM | Wrestling
BOSTON, Mass. – With both matches coming down to the wire, the Davidson wrestling team dropped a pair of close contests, falling to Sacred Heart 22-19 before taking a 24-19 to host Boston University Saturday evening at Case Gym.
Seven different wrestlers earned a win, including Scott Patrick, who posted a pair of victories to improve to 10-1 on the season.
"Give credit to BU and especially Sacred Heart for everything they have done with their programs," said head coach Bob Patnesky. "I think we definitely grew, both as teams and individuals, this evening."
Philip Elias (125) kicked things off with a 9-3 decision over Sacred Heart's Joe Harris, while Anthony Elias (133) followed suit with a 15-7 major decision over Theodore Fabian to give the Wildcats a 7-0 lead. The Pioneers won the next five to take a 19-7 advantage.
Nathaniel Powers (174) ended the skid as Sacred Heart was forced to forfeit at 184-pounds. Patrick (197) then earned his fifth pin of the season in 6:10 over Tomasz Filipkowski but they Wildcats would take the 22-19 loss.
James McCord scored his first career victory at 141-pounds, winning a 6-5 decision over Boston University's Peter Ishiguro to cut the Davidson deficit to five at 8-3. Kevin Birmingham (149) pinned Nick Tourville in 2:03, tying for the team lead with Patrick at five pins on the season, and giving the 'Cats the lead at 9-8.
Patrick, this time wrestling at 184-pounds grabbed his second victory of the day, winning a 13-4 major decision over Colin Saunders. Michael Moore won by forfeit at 197-pounds, but it wasn't enough to give the Wildcats the win as they fell to the Terriers 24-19.
The Wildcats are off until the New Year, when they will kick off 2014 with a trip to Ada, Ohio, to take on Ohio Northern January 8 at 7 p.m.
