Graham jumped out early in at 103 with a come from behind victory as Ryan Taylor defeated Max Hvlobeck, 7-3. Hvlobeck got on the scoreboard first with a quick takedown, but that was all he was able to do from there as Taylor was able to get a takedown and two back points in the second period to take the lead from there. Graham jumped out to the quick 3-0 lead and never looked back. Blair then sent out the backup 112 to wrestle Connor Cassidy in hopes of getting on the board but it wasn't meant to be as Cassidy comes through with probably the biggest victory of the night, winning 5-2.

At 130, sensational freshman Bo Jordan did not disappoint the home crowd as he came out fast and strong with two quick takedowns over Russ Parsons. Then he hit him with a nasty half nelson and pinned him in the first as Graham continued to pile it on Blair leading now at this point 15-3. Not to be outdone by his cousin Bo, Isaac Jordan went out and then dismantled Todd Preston with an array of single leg takedowns to win 15-5 in a match that saw Jordan break Preston in the third period.

Chris Villalonga finally got Blair going again with an 11-5 decision over Matt Stephens at 145. Blair looked like maybe they could get a rally going as Jesse Shannaman pinned the freshman Mannier as they closed the gap to 21-12 after 152. However, that was as close it as it got as Kyle Ryan ended the short lived rally with a 17-7 major decision over Brad Bishop. Huston Evans then followed it up with a 23-8 technical fall over Mario Orlandi at 171 to pretty much seal the fate of Blair as they trailed 30-12.
