PLYMOUTH, Wis. – A depleted Saint John’s second team went 0-3 at the Lakeland Duals on Saturday, Jan. 24, in Plymouth, Wis.
SJU forfeited three weights and lost two of the three duals by one match. Each team won two bouts, but both were bonus-point wins for the Milwaukee School of Engineering (Wis.) in a 28-24 loss. The host Muskies and SJU double-forfeited three weights in the close 14-12 win for Lakeland before Wisconsin-Platteville took advantage of the three forfeits in the 35-11 defeat to end the day.
Freshman Jackson Graham (Apple Valley, Minn.) and sophomore Robert Tait (Faribault, Minn./Bethlehem Academy) both 3-0 at 174 and 184 pounds, respectively. Graham tallied two bonus-point wins (10-1 major decision and a 17-0 technical fall) to improve to 3-1 on the year, while Tait recorded two major decisions to move to 4-6.
Sophomore Adam Sutlief (Browerville, Minn.) went 2-1 at 149 pounds, including an exhibition win against MSOE, and added another victory at 157 pounds to improve to 7-9 on the season.
SJU concludes its busy weekend with a 2 p.m. dual at No. 6 Augsburg on Sunday, Jan. 25, in Minneapolis.
