In a match that started in the 174-pound weight class, junior Conor Fenn knotted the score at three-all with a 6-3 decision over Paul Pierce. With the win, Fenn improves to 8-6 on the year.
The 'Cats second hand raised was freshman Caleb Ziebell. The Slinger, Wisc., native jumped out to an 8-0 lead, but Julio Algeria battled back, using five takedowns in the final period to make it close, but Ziebell held on.
