    Gettysburg takes down Elizabethtown

    GETTYSBURG, Pa. -- Junior heavyweight Camden Stoops (East Prospect, Pa./Eastern York) posted a first-period pin to seal a 26-17 victory for Gettysburg College over Elizabethtown College in a non-conference wrestling match inside Bream Gym Wednesday night.

    Gettysburg (1-0) jumped out with three consecutive victories. Sophomore Lenny Ogozalek (Summit Hill, Pa./Panther Valley) scored a takedown in the third period and held off Philip Torresani for a 7-6 win at 125 to begin the contest.

    In the next bout at 133 pounds, sophomore Barrett Connor Glenside, Pa./Germantown Academy) used his longer reach to score a pair of first-period takedowns against Bryan Pflanz. Pflanz pulled to 6-5 at the end of the second frame, but Connor closed strong with an escape and a takedown in the final period to win 9-5.

    Sophomore Jake Bracken (Chatsworth, Calif./Harvard-Westlake School) dominated his match at 141 pounds as he finished with a technical fall (15-0) with 52 seconds left in the third period.

    After Elizabethtown (1-0) managed a pin and major decision at 149 and 157, respectively, the Bullets picked up a forfeit win at 165 to pull in front 17-10. Senior Tyler Cunningham (East Berlin, Conn./Xavier) won a shootout in the 174 bout, piling up three takedowns in the final period to clinch a 16-10 win over Quinn Ruble.

    The Blue Jays pulled within three points in the team scoring with a major decision and a decision at the next two weight classes. Stoops wasted no time grabbing advantage in the heavyweight bout, using his size advantage to take down Eric Eckstein. He rolled Eckstein's shoulders to the mat with 34 seconds remaining in the first period.

    Gettysburg competes in the Fall Brawl at Ursinus College this Saturday, Nov. 14. Opening matches are set to begin at 9:30 a.m.
