    Princeton earns 28-15 win at Virginia

    The Princeton wrestling team dug itself out of an early hole and put forth some impressive performances Saturday afternoon to claim a 28-15 win at Virginia. A dramatic first-period fall by 5th-ranked Patrick Brucki over the 11th-ranked wrestler in the nation, as well as a Top-20 win for Virginia native Marshall Keller, highlighted Princeton's second dual win of the season.

    After decisions by both Travis Stefanik and Kevin Parker drew Princeton even with the Cavaliers at 6-6, Brucki came out on a mission against Jay Aiello. One day after he posted a win over Virginia Tech's 17th-ranked Tom Sleigh, Brucki took control of Aiello immediately and put his shoulders to the mat only 65 seconds into the match.

    Sophomore Kendall Elfstrum moved up a weight and gained some momentum for Princeton by limiting Quinn Miller to a decision, and 14th-ranked Patrick Glory got those points (and more) right back with a forfeit win at 125.

    Keller capped his dream weekend with a second-period pin of Scott Kiyono at 141 pounds, which clinched the dual win for Princeton. Top-ranked Matthew Kolodzik stayed perfect on the season with a 12-1 major decision to cap the match.

    Princeton will be off this week, and will make its home debut Thursday, Dec. 20, against Rider in a match streamed live on ESPN+.
