Buena Vista pins way past Simpson
INDIANOLA, Iowa – Buena Vista used five pins and a technical fall to defeat the Simpson College men's wrestling team 35-18 on Friday night inside Hopper Gymnasium.
A forfeit for Kanin Hable and a couple of decisions by Ethan Riesselman and Riley Kovaleski had Simpson (1-7, 1-5 A-R-C) ahead 12-11 at the halfway point of the dual, but the Beavers (2-8, 1-6 A-R-C) tallied pins in four of the final five matches to surge to the American Rivers Conference road victory.
Riesselman and Kovaleski both went the distance in their matches, earning one-point decisions via riding time points. Shane Mathias pinned Jesus Ceja midway through the third period to hand the Storm their final win at 197 pounds.
UP NEXT
Simpson will return to Hopper Gymnasium in less than a week to host Central on Thursday night at 7 p.m.
