    Buffalo notches a pair of wins

    BOONE, NC -- The State University of New York, Buffalo wrestling team (3-1, 0-0 MAC) closed out their afternoon at the Appalachian State Duals with a pair of victories on Sunday afternoon. With the wins over Cumberland and the host Appalachian State Mountaineers, the Bulls have matched their win total from a season ago.

    "It was a good weekend for us," stated second-year head coach John Stutzman. "We did a lot of great things and the guys responded after a tough loss to Gardner Webb. Beating Appalachian State the way we did, showed me that this team has a lot of fight in them. Pulling (Brett) Perry out of redshirt provided a huge spark for the team. We are a long ways from where we need to be but starting the year 3-1 is something that we can build on."

    Freshman Sean Peacock was impressive all afternoon long for the Bulls at 133-pounds as he finished off his afternoon with a perfect 3-0 record. In his first match of the afternoon against Cumberland, Peacock won by fall over Robbie Resendiz in 2:17 to earn the Bulls six points. Against Gardner-Webb, Peacock earned a hard fought 4-1 decision victory over Tyler Ziegler. In his final match of the day, Peacock earned a major decision win over

    The Bulls best victory of the day came in their final match as they defeated the host Appalachian State Mountaineers by the score of 20-18. The Mountaineers entered with three nationally ranked grapplers compared to Buffalo who had none, but that did not stop the Bulls from pulling the minor upset. Fifth-year senior captain Max Soria led the Bulls charge as he earned a 5-3 decision victory over #29 Dominic Parisi at 125-pounds.

    After back-to-back wins by Peacock and Jason Estevez, UB picked up three of the next four matches to seal the win. Rrok Ndokaj had a solid 11-5 decision victory at 165-pounds before freshman Brett Perry picked up his first career victory at 184-pounds and Joe Ariola closed out the match with a major decision victory, 13-1, at 197-pounds for Buffalo.

    UB had a dominant performance in their opening dual of the afternoon as they handed Cumberland the 50-0 defeat. Six Bulls were able to claim victories by fall including Corey Hollister at 125-pounds, Peacock at 133, Justin Cooksey at 149, Alex Smythe at 157, Tyler Rill at 174 and Austin Weigel at 184-pounds. Estevez was dominant as he won by technical fall, 21-6, while Muhamed McBryde won by major decision at 165-pounds and Ariola and Mike Silvis picked up decision victories.

    UB did not fair too well against Gardner-Webb as they dropped their only dual of the afternoon to the Bulldogs, 32-7. Soria earned a major decision, 12-3, victory while Peacock won by decision, 4-1.
