    North Carolina State won the next two bouts before Kevin Tao gave the Eagles back the advantage with a 7-3 decision over the Wolfpack's Thomas Gantt. North Carolina State retook a slight lead after the next bout before Barreiro and Cast's back-to-back falls put American in the lead for good. Barreiro posted his second fall of the year, pinning Mardel Gabriel in 6:42, and Cast pinned Nijel Jones in 4:43 for his second fall of the season to put American up 21-13 heading into the final two matches.

    Thomas Barreiro ended up on the short end of a 18-13 decision to North Carolina State's Patrick Davis before Devon Bradley secured the win with a 7-5 decision over Bill Cook.
