Go Green's Notes from Post
Our guys have been busy, as we followed up our Scuffle title with a couple more events this weekend. Congrats to Plebe Brady Colbert for winning the Lehman Open crown at HWT, with some very nice wins over two guys that have been in the rankings pretty consistently throughout their careers. We had several placers as well. Here is the recap.
Wrestling’s Colbert Wins Heavyweight Title at F&M Open - Army West Point
 | LANCASTER, Pa. – Army West Point Wrestling's Brady Colbert took the 285 lb championship at Friday's David Lehman/Franklin & Marshall Tournament. The plebe from Manassas, Va. went 5-0 across his title quest, securing falls in the opening two rounds over Logan Marissal of Harvard and Cleveland State's Shane Cook. goarmywestpoint.com |
We followed that up with a dominant win against EIWA foe Long Island University. Great to see Connor Collins back on the mat and getting a big tech fall subbing in for Ethan Berginc.
Wrestling Wins Dual at LIU - Army West Point
Support On the Road
Guys- don't underestimate the impact that showing up for our athletes has on them, especially on the road. The team enjoyed the support of Denny Benchoff at Franklin and Marshall. He looks like he could still go a couple of rounds on the mats! Big thanks to Alex Porcelli for bringing his team to LIU to watch the dual. And another Old Grad is down on the Island coaching as well. It was awesome to have Tyler McLees address the team after the dual.
Headed to DC
Our next dual foe is a very tough American team as we continue to scrap within the EIWA. We will visit them in DC on Sunday for a 1pm match. Last time we traveled there we had a robust crowd. Please reach out to me if you plan to attend.
Navy Tickets
Guys- our goal is to pack Christl Arena when we host navy on 2/16. Please make plans to attend. Here is the ticket link.
