    UNI dominates Ohio

    ATHENS, Ohio -- No. 18 UNI earned bonus points in five matches to dominate Ohio, 27-16 Friday.

    The Panthers (8-2 / 5-0 MAC) led off the first four matches with bonus point wins before Ohio got on the board. JJ Everard started at heavyweight, but he had to medically forfeit the match.

    UNI got falls from Bryce Steiert at 165 pounds and Max Thomsen at 149 pounds. Steiert now has seven consecutive wins and has earned bonus points in the last five with tonight's fall, a tech fall and three major decisions.

    UNI got major decisions at three weights with wins from Taylor Lujan (174), Drew Foster (184) and Jacob Holschalg (197).

    Holschlag won his third consecutive dual at 197 pounds to earn his first win over a ranked opponent with the 11-0 win over No. 33 Bailey Faust.

    After winning one match and losing one match last year to Cameron Kelly of Ohio, Josh Alber now leads the series 2-1 with his 7-2 decision tonight.

    Alber has avenged losses in three of the last four duals. He lost three times to Iowa State's Earl Hall last year before beating him last week. He also lost twice to Corey Keener of Central Michigan in the 2016 season before beating him earlier this month.

    Ohio got wins at heavyweight, 125 pounds, 141 pounds and 157 pounds.

    UP NEXT
