CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Sixth-ranked NC State wrestling picked up its second conference win Friday night by claiming nine of 10 bouts on Virginia's home turf. The 32-4 victory makes it the Pack's 11th consecutive win over the Cavaliers.
Virginia boasts three ranked wrestlers all within the top-30 of their weight classes. NC State was able to defeat two of the three, but the most notable was for Troy Hohman to re-enter the lineup at 133 lbs and take out No. 27 Gable Porter. In the only ranked against ranked matchup of the night, 33rd-ranked Koy Buesgens was able to defeat No. 28 Jack Gioffre by a tight 4-2 score.
The dual started at 125 pounds with Vince Robinson, now ranked third in the country, kicking off the energy for the Pack. He quickly handled business with Virginia's Anthony Rossi by securing a technical fall in the second period to put the Pack up 5-0.
At 133 pounds, Troy Hohman re-entered the lineup to face one of three members of the Cavaliers ranked nationally. The redshirt-sophomore was able to secure a takedown in the first period over No. 27 Gable Porter that would allow him to hold an edge throughout the rest of the match. With Hohman starting in the down position for the third period, he was able to add another point from an escape to strengthen his lead and hold off his opponent's attacks to close out the match and give his team another three points.
Finishing off the dual at 285 lbs, fourth-ranked Isaac Trumble suddenly tallied his fourth fall of the season.
NC State claimed six straight decisions, topped off by Trumble's pin at heavyweight to close the night, ensured that the Wolfpack would be able to run away with the win.
Up Next
The Wolfpack will return home next week to host No. 16 Pittsburgh on Friday night (January 24) for Military Appreciation night. The dual is scheduled for a 7 p.m. start on ACCNX in Reynolds Coliseum.
