    Morningside climbs to 3-0 in GPAC

    Morningside jumped in front 27-0 after the first six weight divisions and coasted to a 30-11 GPAC wrestling victory against Doane on Thursday in Crete, Neb.

    The Mustangs, ranked 18th nationally in the latest NAIA poll, leveled their dual record at 3-3 and climbed to 3-0 in the GPAC to move into a first place tie in the league standings with Northwestern. All three of the Mustangs' losses this season are against NCAA Division II opponents.

    Devin Phaly got the Mustangs rolling with a 3-2 decision against George Shadbolt in the opening 125 lb. bout and the Mustangs never looked back.

    Nick Madsen was a pin winner for the Mustangs by disposing of John Mark Reddick in 2:25 in the 165 lb. match.

    Steven Garcia, this week's GPAC Wrestler of the Week, won by technical fall in a 20-5 romp over Austin Miller at 149 lbs. to extend his winning streak to nine straight triumphs to improve his record to 16-3.

    Kyle Fowler won by a 9-0 major decision at 157 lbs., Alex Schmitz won by a 12-5 decision at 141 lbs. and Phil Rasmussen won a 4-1 decision in the heavyweight finale. The Mustangs also received a victory from Dusten Reed, who won by forfeit at 133 lbs.

    Morningside will compete in the Minnesota West Community College Worthington Open on Saturday.
