LANCASTER, Pa. -- Franklin & Marshall will host Bucknell University in Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association action Tuesday evening at the Mayser Center. Wrestling gets underway at 7:00 p.m. The Bison stampede into town with two nationally ranked wrestlers on their roster, David Marble (133) and Andy Rendos (165), each rank 14th in their respective weight classes.
Bucknell faced three teams on Saturday at the Northeast Duals and came away with a 1-2 record. The Bison defeated Appalachian State 26-8, but fell to No. 17 Central Michigan (25-6) and No. 24 Virginia (30-11). The win over the Mountaineers was the first of the season for Bucknell, which is now 1-4 this year.
Five Bucknell wrestlers posted two wins on the day, with freshman Derek Reber and Jay Hahn gathering victories against Central Michigan and Appalachian State. David Marble, Andy Rendos and Kevin LeValley each posted wins opposite Appalachian State and Virginia.
Delaware State's wrestling team won six of ten bouts to overcome Franklin & Marshall for the first time in the series' history between the schools. The Hornets (2-1) swept 141 through 165, and then the final two bouts to take the tenth meeting with the Diplomats (0-2) 20-16.
F&M's Justin Herbert (7-4) picked up the only pin of the afternoon, decking Kyle Skinner with one second left in the second period for his second pin of the season. The fall ended Delaware State's four-bout run on the scoreboard and was the 25th of Herbert's career, putting him within five of the school's career record.
