"We wrapped up our first semester tournament stretch with a very tough event in the Lindenwood Open," said head coach Vinny Barber. "We started today really bumpy but we were able to get back on track. We did a great job securing bonus point victories and winning tight matches. Ka'Ron finished in third place avenging a loss from earlier in the day. Shelton wrestled another solid weekend and we are seeing his steady improvements. From our first competition of the season through today, our guys have improved and are on pace to be able to peak when we need them to."
