    ODU closes regular season with road victory over Drexel

    PHILADELPHIA, Pa. -- The Old Dominion (9-7, 5-2 MAC) wrestling team defeated Drexel (4-10, 1-4 EIWA) on Sunday afternoon, 23-12. Junior Tim Young defeated No. 11 Stephen Loiseau by a 5-4 decision at 197 pounds to highlight the afternoon.

    "Overall we wrestled much better today against Drexel with a higher level of energy and focus than we did on Friday at American," said head coach Steve Martin. "We're very proud of everyone's effort but especially Tim Young's win against a top-12 opponent. We're looking forward to rolling this momentum into the MAC Tournament."

    Opening the dual with a ranked Drexel opponent in No. 15 Ebed Jarrell, Shane Jones dropped a 6-1 decision, putting the Dragons ahead 3-0.

    At 174, Luke Drugac picked up a 7-6 decision with a last second takedown to tie up the dual. Dean Drugac then dropped a close 5-3 decision to Anthony Walters.

    Young's performance at 197 was his first career win over a ranked opponent.

    At heavyweight, Ali Wahab battled No. 14 Joey Goodhart, but ultimately dropped a 2-1 decision, which was decided by riding time.

    Michael McGee picked up bonus points at 125, where he defeated Antonio Minnino 16-4 with over four minutes of riding time. McGee posted a perfect 15-0 dual mark this season. Picking up another four team points for the Monarchs, Trevon Majette secured a major decision over Alex Salas.

    At 141 pounds, Sa'Derian Perry collected six team points with a first period pin over Nick Widmann.
