    Rutgers rolls over Clarion

    CLARION, Pa. -- The Rutgers wrestling team dropped Clarion, 30-12, Friday night at Tippin Gym, where the Scarlet Knights took eight of 10 bouts to record its highest point total this season. With the win, RU is 3-0 for the third time in four years heading into a pair dual matchups next Friday at the 2013 Asics/ Journeymen Northeast Duals.

    The Scarlet Knights began the match with three-straight victories, jumping out to an early 11-0 lead. The bout began at 125 pounds, where freshman Scott DelVecchio (South Plainfield, N.J.) kicked the action off with the first dual victory of his career.

    DelVecchio earned a 15-6 major decision before redshirt senior Vinnie Dellefave (Toms River, N.J.) improved to 2-0 this season with a 15-6 major decision of his own against No. 18/NR/NR (AWN/InterMat/W.I.N.) Sam Sherlock

    Freshman Tyson Dippery (Harrisburg, Pa.) earned a 7-3 decision in his first dual start at 141 pounds, but Clarion (2-3) came storming back, earning back-to-back pins at 149 and 157 pounds to take a 12-11 lead.

    From there, RU never looked back, winning the final five bouts to secure a 30-12 win. Redshirt junior Nick Visicaro (Long Branch, N.J.) picked up his first dual win by an 8-2 margin over CU’s Mike Pavasko, while redshirt freshman Phil Bakuckas (Hammonton, N.J.), redshirt sophomore Billy Smith (Wantage, N.J.), sophomore Hayden Hrymack (Lincroft, N.J.) and redshirt senior Dan Seidenberg (Red Bank, N.J.) all improved to 3-0 in duals this season.
