Fighting Camels Drop Three at JMU Duals
(Saturday, February 1, 2003)


HARRISONBURG, Va.--The Campbell University wrestling team dropped all three of its matches on Saturday at the James Madison Duals including a defeat to the host. The Dukes' 28-11 triumph of Campbell was a Colonial Athletic Association match. The Dukes squared their league record to 3-3. Campbell slipped to 1-7 in the league.
The Golden Flashes of Kent State (14-3) swep tall three of their outings, including a 37-9 decision against host James Madison (4-8), in an afternoon of six dual matches at JMU's Godwin Hall Saturday afternoon. Appalachian State (8-1) suffered its first loss of the season and went 2-1 in the competition. JMU went 1-2 and Campbell University (4-11) 0-3.
Kent State opened with a 39-0 shutout of the Campbell Camels before toppling the Mountaineers of Appalachian State 24-12. The Golden Flashes finished the afternoon with a 37-9 verdict against the JMU Dukes.
Redshirt freshman Heavyweight Tomas Rodriguez was one of three Golden Flashes to go 3-0 on the day, but was the only one to register a fall in each of his triumphs. None of his opponent's lasted beyond the first round and his quickest stick came against JMU freshman Matt Coffey in 32 seconds.Rodriquez upped his record to 15-3.
KSU's other triple winners were 165-pound redshirt senior Nick Nemeth (26-3) , who picked up a forfeit, fall and a major decision, and 184-pound redshirt freshman Alex Camargo (25-9) , who had a major to go along with a pair of decisions. The Mountaineers, who beat JMU 27-13 and Campbell 34-9, also had a trio of triple victors. Seniors Rich Caisse at 125 pounds and Travis Drake at 133 each added three wins to their totals. Caisse had a tech fall among wins and improved his record to 25-7. Drake registered a fall and a major en route to improving to 22-7. Jason Jones, a 141-pound sophomore, tallied a tech fall and a pair of decisions to move to 27-11.
JMU's top performers were senior Josh Fultz and redshirt junior Steve Kodish as both went 2-1. Fultz majored in both of his wins at 165 and improved to 9-7 overall. Kodish, at 197, raised his record to 18-9 and notched his second fall of the season.
