    Appalachian State opens dual season with two wins

    BOONE, N.C. -- In the team's first duals of the season, Appalachian State wrestling (2-0) had little trouble knocking off both of its opponents. After downing Anderson (0-3) by a score of 32-12, the Apps swept Belmont Abbey (0-3), 50-0 at Varsity Gym on Sunday.

    Despite the positive results, coach JohnMark Bentley had some frustration with the less-than-perfect day.

    “I'm disappointed with the way our guys competed in the first match,” Bentley said. “We didn't control the action, and we had spent a lot of time in practice working on scoring points. Our guys have to learn to be ready for every bout and not let down.”

    “In the second match,” Bentley continued. “We did much better, and I'm proud of the way we handled our competition.

    After factoring in Sunday's results, Bentley will select his lineup to travel to the Keystone Classic hosted by Pennsylvania on Sun., Nov. 20 in Philadelphia, Pa.
