MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – Tom Borrelli has preached aggressiveness and scoring to his Central Michigan wrestlers throughout the season.
On Sunday, the 23rd-ranked Chippewas carried out the game plan nearly to perfection in topping Buffalo, 30-9, in a Mid-American Conference dual at McGuirk Arena.
“Buffalo is the type of team that tends to hold on to you a little bit and slow you down,” said Borrelli, whose team improved to 8-4 overall, 5-1 MAC. “We figured that out today and scored a lot of points.”
The Chippewas overcame a forfeit loss at 125 pounds as Brent Fleetwood sat out his third consecutive dual with an injury.
