Hayes and Baguma Put in Solid Efforts, Wolves Win Dual Over Dragons

ABERDEEN, S.D. – Hunter Hayes and Andre Baguma combined for 11 takedowns as the pair picked up wins for MSUM, but 20th-ranked Northern State defeated the Dragons in dual action, 29-8.

Clayson Mele opened the dual for the Dragons, battling Northern State’s Landen Fischer. Mele scored two takedowns and four escapes, but was unable to collect two takedowns to pull even with Fischer. The sophomore fell in the match 12-8.

Hunter Hayes got MSUM its first victory of the dual at 141 pounds thanks to four takedowns and an escape. Hayes collected over two minutes of riding time to put together a 10-1 major decision victory over Robert Coyle.

Andre Baguma closed the match with a spirited effort against Northern State’s Nathan Schauer. The senior had seven takedowns and two escapes to pick up a major decision win at the final match of the night.
