Boldt, 197-pound senior from Arlington, S.D., went 2-0 last weekend in his first competition of the season. Boldt, who is ranked No. 2 in Division II at 197 pounds, won a 16-7 major decision over Augsburg's Wally O'Connor in the Vikings' 23-14 setback to the defending Division III national champions. O'Connor is ranked No. 3 in Division III. He used 7 takedowns, an escape and riding time to register the win. All 7 of O'Connor's points were escapes.
The 2005 Division II national runner-up, Boldt then pinned St. Cloud State's Cody Byrns in 2:19 as he helped the Vikings to a 46-3 NCC victory over the Huskies.
The Vikings return home on Wednesday for a dual against Dakota Wesleyan at 7 p.m. in the Elmen Center. Augustana then travels to Cedar Falls, Iowa, this weekend for the Division II National Duals. The Vikings finished second at last year's event.
