    Virginia Tech routs West Virginia

    BLACKSBURG -- No. 10 Virginia Tech took eight of the 10 matches against West Virginia including four bonus point wins as the Hokies topped the Mountaineers, 30-6, in front 2,392 at Carillion Clinic Court on Friday night.

    Three-straight wins from redshirt sophomore David McFadden at 165 pounds to redshirt junior Zack Zavatsky at 184 went for bonus points for the Hokies (5-1). McFadden moved to 18-0 on the season with a major decision while freshman Hunter Bolen picked up his first win by fall at 174 pounds.

    With the Hokies only leading by one through four weight classes, 7-6, redshirt freshman B.C. LaPrade knocked off his second ranked opponent of the season with a convincing 8-2 decision over No. 18 Zachary Moore. LaPrade's win sparked five-consecutive wins for Tech.

    After McFadden's team-best 10th bonus point win of the season, Bolen registered his first pin as a Hokie at 4:48 in the bout over redshirt senior Parker VonEgidy. The match was clinched after Zavatsky gave the Hokies its third-consecutive bonus point win with a workman-like 14-2 major decision with riding time over Brenden McRill.

    The top five bout of the night between third-ranked Jared Haught and fifth-ranked Jake Smith saw Haught take 2-1 decision on a stall and an escape. Redshirt freshman Andrew Dunn closed out the night with a 2-1 decision in the second tiebreaker period.

    The Hokies will return to action in 2018 at the Virginia Duals in Hampton, Virginia from Jan. 12-13.
