Harris Leads McDaniel on First Day of Budd Whitehill Duals

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - Senior Jaedyn Harris won all three of his matches at 197 pounds to lead the McDaniel College men's wrestling team on the opening day of the Budd Whitehill Duals hosted by Lycoming.

The Green Terror (6-2) began the day with matches against No. 7 Stevens and No. 23 Ithaca before edging out a three-point win against Wilkes in their third match of the day.

Harris posted two wins over ranked wrestlers, highlighted by a 4-1 win in sudden victory against seventh-ranked Cameron Butka of Wilkes to seal the team's sixth win in eight dual matches this season.

Harris, who is ranked eighth in Division III and first in the Mideast Region, began the day with a 2-1 decision against Blaise Wagner of Stevens who is ranked fifth in the Southeast Region.

Other multiple winners for McDaniel included sophomore Thomas Monn at 149 pounds and sophomore Romeo Tsai at 125. Monn, ranked fifth in the nation, suffered just his second loss of the season against Stevens before bouncing back with a second period fall in 3:45 in a hotly contested match versus sixth-ranked Matt Beyer of Ithaca.

Tsai dropped his first match against Akhil Vega of Stevens who is ranked fifth in the Southeast Region before posting back-to-back wins with a first-period fall in just 94 seconds against Wilkes.

Sophomore Ryan Ohler also had two wins at 165 pounds, posting a first-period fall in 1:58 versus Wilkes and a 2-1 decision over Carter Friend over Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

The Green Terror face host and No. 21 Lycoming on Saturday at 9 a.m. with the winner advancing to the ninth-place match at noon.
