RU improved to 39-33-5 all-time with the win over the Tigers, winning for the 18th straight time.
Redshirt freshman Phil Bakuckas (Hammonton, N.J.) won in exciting fashion at 174 pounds, earning a takedown with less than 10 seconds remaining to defeat Princeton’s Brett Harner. Redshirt senior Dan Seidenberg (Red Bank, N.J.) and redshirt junior Nick Visicaro (Long Branch, N.J.) also earned victories at 184 and 165 pounds, respectively.
The Scarlet Knights entered the intermission with a 12-6 lead, winning four of the first five bouts while also gaining the riding time point in the wins. Highlighting the victories was a 5-0 decision by freshman Corey Stasenko (South Plainfield, N.J.) at 149 pounds, the first dual victory of his career.
Redshirt sophomore Anthony Perrotti (Roseland, N.J.) controlled the 157 pound bout, earning a 7-2 victory over Princeton’s Matt Gancayco.
Freshman 125-pounder Scott DelVecchio (South Plainfield, N.J.), who wrestled at 133 pounds against the Tigers in the place of redshirt senior Vinnie Dellefave (Toms River, N.J.), scored a comeback win over Princeton’s Jordan Laster. DelVecchio trailed, 3-1, entering the final period, but used a pair of takedowns and escapes to capture an 8-5 win. Dellefave did not wrestle due to illness.
Filling in for DelVecchio at 125 pounds was freshman Sean McCabe (Connetquot, N.Y.), who picked up his second dual win of the season with a 7-2 decision over Princeton’s Ryan Cash.
RU is in action next on Jan. 3, 2014, when the squad welcomes Columbia to the College Ave. Gym for its second home dual of the season.
