Virginia Duals
No. 13 ISU Defeats Rider, Bucknell at Virginia Duals
HAMPTON, Va. – No. 13 Iowa State (7-3, 2-0 Big 12) recorded a pair of victories over Rider, 30-9, and Bucknell, 28-12, Saturday at the Virginia Duals inside Hampton Coliseum. The Cyclones combined to win 14 of their 20 bouts on the day, including nine by bonus-point margin.
ISU’s 2-0 day completed a perfect eastern road trip that saw the Cyclones defeat No. 22 West Virginia on Wednesday before besting the Broncs (2-6, 0-1 MAC) and Bison (4-4, 2-0 EIWA) Saturday. Iowa State’s 30 dual points against Rider tied for its most in a dual this season (vs. Lock Haven). The Cyclones have won three duals in-a-row, and six of their last seven, since a 1-2 start to the season.
Individually, seven Cyclones had 2-0 days: Kysen Terukina (125), Evan Frost (133), Jacob Frost (141), Paniro Johnson (149), Cody Chittum (157), Evan Bockman (184) and Daniel Herrera (285).
J. Frost had two ranked victories on the day while Chittum improved his team-best winning streak to seven-consecutive matches. After recording his first-career pin Wednesday at West Virginia, Johnson registered his first-career tech fall against a Division I opponent in the dual against Bucknell.
