Drexel defeated Army on Sunday

[Tom McAndrew]

22-14. Not a big deal to most PSU fans. However, the Dragons will be at the Keystone Classic, so it's interesting to get a comparison. You can read the results of the individual matches at THIS LINK.

Of interest to me:

- Army's 197 lbser. Rocco Caywood lost to Drexel's Joshua Murphy, 6-4. Caywood was ranked #11 by InterMat (I believe), while Murphy was unranked
- histone's favorite Army wrestler, Austin Harry, fell to Kevin Devoy, Jr., 8-0 (for those keeping track, that's 2 8--0 defeats Harry had over the weekend)
- the only change to the lineup that Army made was at 285. Nick Nevills won by TF over David Farr. Drexel's Joey Goodhart pinned Army's Trevor Smith
- give some credit to Army's Russ Parsons. He got pinned by Nolf on Friday, and turned around and got a 17-0 TF against Drexel's Mike Comunale

Anyone know anything about Garrett Hammond? He defaulted out of a dual meet on 11/5 and then didn't wrestle in this one.

Just terrible news -- really thought he had a chance to make some noise at Drexel.

That really sucks for Garrett. I was thinking the same thing Tom, that he would make some noise while he was there. Best wishes for him to have a speedy recovery.

Austin is my favorite wrestler. Great kid. I thought he looked good against Cortez, except for the nice tilts.

Thanks for the updates Tom.

Well, that's a kick in the gut. Garett's a great kid, really was rooting for him to have a great year.

Thanks, Tom. Sorry to hear that. He always put on a show in the Blue & White.

That stinks, but he seems to have a positive mind set. I think he will do great at life!
