KING'S GRAPPLERS FALL TO ELIZABETHTOWN

ELIZABETHTOWN — The host Elizabethtown College wrestling team won four of the five matches actually wrestled and added three forfeit victories as the Blue Jays posted a 40-18 victory over visiting King's College in a Metropolitan Conference match Wednesday night in Elizabethtown.

With the win the Blue Jays improved to 11-5 while King's fell to 6-13.

The Monarchs traveled with just seven grapplers due injuries and academic commitments and won only one match on the mat. Senior all-American Mike Reilly earned a first-period pin over Kyle Deeds in 1:09. The Monarchs picked up two forfeits of their own as Chris Mazzocchi (149) and Peter Dwyer (285) had their hands raised.
