    Minnesota finishes 4-0 at Northeast Duals

    November 26, 2005 - The fifth-ranked Golden Gopher wrestling team (4-0-0) won all four of its matches at the Northeast Duals on Saturday in Albany, N.Y. Minnesota defeated Virginia Tech, 41-7, No. 25 Tennessee-Chattanooga, 36-6, No. 15 Central Michigan, 19-13 and American, 40-10.

    The Golden Gophers rolled past the Hokies in the first match of the day. Minnesota racked up three pins and a technical fall and also benefitted from a pair of forfeits. Second- ranked heavyweight Cole Konrad closed out the match with a 7-2 decision against No. 12 Michael Faust. In a match tied at one, Konrad finished the third period with a flurry of takedowns to claim the win.

    Against the Mocs, the Golden Gophers trailed 6-3 after three matches, but rallied with seven straight wins to breeze to the victory. Third-ranked Mack Reiter posted the most impressive win of the match with an 8-0 major decision against 12th-ranked Matt Keller at 133 pounds. Senior All-American Matt Nagel picked up his second straight pin in 6:24 against Daniel Peterson at 165 pounds. Nagel leads Minnesota with six falls this season.

    Minnesota was tested against 15th-ranked Central Michigan in a 19-13 win. With the Golden Gophers leading 16-13, Konrad clinched the win with a 9-4 decision against 19th- ranked Bubba Gritter at heavyweight.

    The final match of the day against American provided a couple of surprising results. Nagel and sixth-ranked Roger Kish were both handed their first losses of the season. Nagel suffered a 13-3 major decision defeat against eighth-ranked Muzaffar Abdurakhmanov at 165 pounds. At 184, 12th-ranked Josh Glenn pinned Kish in 4:02. Despite the losses, Minnesota dominated in the other eight matches en route to the 40-10 win. Konrad finished an impressive day with a 19-4 technical fall against No. 14 Adam LoPiccolo.

    Minnesota returns to the road next weekend when they face Northern Iowa on Friday, Dec. 2.
