    Abdurakhmanov, Glenn shine at Northeast Duals

    ALBANY, N.Y. -- Muzaffar Abdurakhmanov (Tashkent, Uzbekistan) stayed undefeated this year, knocking off fourth-ranked Matt Nagel of Minnesota and Josh Glenn (Johnson City, N.Y./Johnson) pinned all his opponents, including sixth-ranked Roger Kish of Minnesota to highlight the American University wrestling team's performance at the Northeast Duals Saturday.

    The team wrestled without a 125 or 141 and went 1-3 on the day, beating Virginia-Tech and losing to No. 5 Minnesota (40-10), No. 13 Central Michigan 27-16, No. 25 Tennessee-Chattanooga by five points.

    Wins by Abdurakhmanov and Glenn highlighted AU's final dual of the day, against #5 ranked Minnesota. Abdurakhmanov major decisioned fourth-ranked Matt Nagel, 13-3. Nagel came into the match undefeated, recently beating defending NCAA Champion Johny Hendricks of Oklahoma State. Abdurakhmanov is now 10-0 on the year.

    At 184, Glenn pinned sixth-ranked Roger Kish 4:02 into the match for the win. It was Kish's first loss of the year. Glenn had four wins on the day, all by pin. He has won every match this year by pin and is now 10-0 on the year as well.

    Matt Morkel (Omaha, Neb./Skutt), American's promising 125 pounder, was unable to compete because of an injury that occurred in the team's season opener.
