#7 St. John’s beat #2 Augsburg for the first time in 22 years this past week, and the stories from each school are linked below. St. John’s 18-13 win broke a streak of 92 straight MIAC wins for Augsburg that stretches back to the 1985-86 season. Each team had an unranked wrestler beat a ranked opponent at St. John’s 157 Matt Baarson defeated #3 Jason Adams and Augsburg 141 Lucas Murray defeated #4 Minga Batsukh. The only bonus points of the night were scored by Augsburg 197 Jared Massey in a 14-5 win, but no other match was decided by more than 3 points.

I have to say, I was quite shocked the Johnnies won. Also surprised not to see Seth Flodeen wrestle…what’s up with that?
