NORFOLK, Va. – A pin in the final bout by 285 pound Ali Wahab secured the Old Dominion (2-3, 1-1 MAC) victory over Northern Illinois (0-4, 0-2 MAC) 21-12. The Monarchs won six out of 10 bouts in the dual at the Ted Constant Center in front of over 270 fans.
“It meant a lot, especially for the team. Last dual, we lost in the final bout, which was my match. It basically cost our dual meet. I was never going to let that happen again,” explained Wahab.
The Huskies won the first three bouts of the night over the Monarchs.
