Posted By: LancerLou #1 UNO & #2 Augustana Dual starting soon - 02/16/11 11:40 PM
Just wanted to let everyone know that the webcast of UNO vs. Augustana will begin at 7 PM tonight. At the National Duals, this match-up was back and forth and was not decided until the heavyweight match. I am hoping it is not as close tonight.

UNO wins 22-9; 7 matches to 3. I wish 197 had turned out differently, but I can't really feel bad about a 1-1 tie in regulation against the #2 ranked runner-up from last year's NCAA Div II finals and a Senior to boot.

I hope some wrestling fans somewhere in Kansas enjoyed the dual.
Matt is having a great year! The SM East faithful are sure proud of him!
Thanks, Eric. We love our Lancers!

I thought I would share this comment from another wrestling site:

"Hats off to Augustana for creating a great wrestling atmosphere tonight. There were 2003 fans and the building was packed. Many DI programs don't get this many people to a home dual meet. UNO was able to keep the home crowd quiet most of the night but it was definitely a large Augie favored crowd. Most of the student body both male and female were dressed in singlets and both schools provided video coverage with announcers.

Our sport needs more teams doing this at home dual meets."

I noticed the student cheering section on the webcast. Wish I'd had a better view of the students dressed in singlets!
