    Middleweights power Lycoming past Alfred State

    ALFRED, N.Y. -- A pair of bonus-point wins from Lycoming College's ranked wrestlers helped the wrestling team post a 26-19 win over Alfred State on Thursday night, Jan. 28, at the Orvis Activities Center, as the team clinched the 52nd winning season in program history.

    The Pioneers jumped out to a 12-0 lead through the first three bouts before Lycoming got rolling, as sixth-ranked junior Seth Lansberry (Klingerstown, Pa./Line Mountain) posted an early takedown and two four-point near falls before pinning Satchel Holder in 2:26 at 149 pounds.
