Wrestling seals dual victory after final match goes to six OT's

DeKALB — It came down to a six overtime match in the heavyweight finale for the wrestling team to clinch a 19-16 dual victory Friday against the University at Buffalo Bulls in DeKalb.

Huskie redshirt junior Max Ihry and redshirt senior Nolan Terrance tied in regulation during the dual-deciding contest. After trading escapes in overtime, Ihry was able to keep Terrance grounded in the sixth overtime period to secure the win for himself and the Huskies.

“I would want to say there wasn’t any pressure but there was some to come out and get the win,” Ihry said.
