Complete Results
Princeton finished third at the 2022 EIWA Championships, tying its best finish since its 1978 title, along with third-place finishes in 2017, 2018 and 2019. The team had nine placewinners, tying the 1975 team for the most in program history. Five Tigers, including Patrick Glory (125), Marshall Keller (149), Quincy Monday (157), Travis Stefanik (184) and Luke Stout (197) earned bids to the NCAA Championships with their finishes.
Here's a look at how each Tiger wrestler on Sunday afternoon fared:
125: Patrick Glory
Top-seeded Glory, who clinched his NCAA Championships bid with his win in the semifinals earlier Sunday, saw his 40-match win streak come to an end with a 19-6 loss to Cornell's second-seeded Vito Arujau. Glory, a junior, was a two-time defending EIWA champion. Arujau had three first-period takedowns on the way to a 6-3 lead after a period on his way to the win.
133: Nick Kayal
Kayal, a sophomore seeded 10th and making his EIWA Championships debut, finished sixth as 11th-seeded Richard Treanor of Army West Point was a 9-8 winner in the fifth-place match. Kayal had two first-period takedowns to lead 5-3 after one and was in front of 6-5 after two. Treanor had a takedown and a two-point near-fall in the third to pull in front.
141: Danny Coles
Coles, a freshman seeded eighth, was an 11-4 winner over Hofstra's 14th-seeded Justin Hoyle in Coles' EIWA debut. Coles had five takedowns over the match with two in each of the final two periods, never allowing Hoyle one in the win.
149: Marshall Keller
Keller, a junior seeded 16th, is headed to the NCAA Championships after defeating four higher-seeded opponents in the consolation draw to make the third-place match and clinch a bid. Keller had an escape in the second period for the first points of the match against third-seeded Max Brignola of Lehigh, but Brignola answered with a takedown in the second and a reversal in the third to pull in front on the way to a 5-3 win. It was Keller's second place-winning finish at the EIWAs in three trips, along with an eighth-place finish in 2019.
157: Quincy Monday
Monday, a senior seeded second, had two first-period takedowns to lead 4-2 after a period against fourth-seeded Andrew Cerniglia of Navy on the way to a 9-4 win while adding another takedown in each of the last two periods. Monday finished runner-up as a freshman in 2019, second as a sophomore in 2020 and earned his first EIWA championship with the finish, along with a bid to the NCAA Championships.
174: Nate Dugan
Dugan, a sophomore seeded 10th, finished eighth as fourth-seeded Nick Fine of Columbia won in a third-period pin after leading 7-2. The place-winning finish came in Dugan's EIWA meet debut.
184: Travis Stefanik
Stefanik, a junior seeded second, finished sixth in each of his first two trips to the EIWAs and earned his best finish this time, taking runner-up honors after Cornell's top-seeded Jonathan Loew won the final match 12-5. Loew had two first-period takedowns to lead 4-1 three minutes in on the way to the win. Stefanik's finish earned him a bid to the NCAA Championships.
197: Luke Stout
Stout, a freshman making his EIWA meet debut, held the third seed and finished second to top-seeded Lou DePrez of Binghamton, 10-4. The finish earned Stout a bid to the NCAA Championships. DePrez had two first-period takedowns to lead 4-2 and had the only three points of the second period to lead 7-2 entering the third.
HWT: Matt Cover
Cover, a sophomore making his EIWA debut, was seeded eighth and finished fifth after getting a late takedown to defeat Hofstra's Zachary Knighton-Ward 3-1. Ward had a second-period escape for the lone point of the match until Cover had an escape to tie it with a minute to go. The decisive takedown came with 12 seconds to go to help deliver Cover the win.
