Lehigh rallied from a 7-14 deficit after 5 weight classes to beat American, 23-17, punctuated by one of the best heavyweight matches in years between #1 ranked Zach Rey and #3 ranked Flores. Rey won, 5-3, in a match the had the movement usually seen in the middleweights. Both guys are studs--not 'flabby', with moves. However, super frosh Austin Meys at 174 lowered the boom with a resounding fall, his 10th of the year. Those bonus points along with Dutton's huge upset of #14 ranked wrestler at 141 proved the difference. Mountain Hawks are now off until February 17 when they travel to #6 Rutgers.
