No. 2 Augustana Falls to No. 1 Nebraska-Omaha in National Duals
finals
Saturday, January 22, 2005
Cleveland, Ohio - - The No. 2 ranked Augustana College wrestling
team capped its best-ever showing at the NWCA/Cliff Keen National
Duals with a runner-up finish, falling to No. 1 and defending
national champion Nebraska-Omaha 20-18 Saturday night at the
Cleveland State University Convocation Center.
The Vikings, whose previous best finish at the National Duals was
fifth in 2003, matched the Mavericks point for point throughout the
dual. Each team won five bouts, but the difference came in the last
match, at heavyweight, where Augustana had to forfeit due to an
injury to Cris Bietz in Saturday morning's semifinal win over Central
Oklahoma.
The dual was tied 10-10 after six matches. UNO's Steve Conlin then
recorded an 11-3 major decision over Ben Caven to put the Mavericks
ahead 14-10. Augustana's Tom Meester and Tim Boldt picked up
back-to-back major decisions at 184 and 197 pounds to give the
Vikings an 18-14 lead, but it wasn't enough to account for the
6-point forfeit at heavyweight.
Augustana will be back in action on Thursday when the Vikings
travel to Mitchell, S.D., to face Dakota Wesleyan and Minnestota West
Community College in a double dual. The Vikings will then entertain
No. 8 Minnesota State on Friday, January 28, at 7 p.m. in the Elmen
Center.
