No. 24 Virginia defeats Wrestling Saturday

BUIES CREEK, N.C. - Nationally-ranked Virginia won all ten individual matches and went on to a 53-0 win over the Campbell wrestling team Saturday inside Carter Gym.

Virginia moves to 8-2 overall on the year, while Campbell falls to 0-3 in dual competition this year.

The Cavaliers, ranked No. 24 in this week's Intermat Top 25 poll, registered five pins in and two technical fall victories over the Camels.

Saturday's match was one of just two home events for Campbell this year; CU will also host Gardner-Webb on Jan. 25 inside the Pope Center.

The Camels are off for Christmas, and will next take the mat Dec. 29-30 when they travel to Greensboro to participate in the prestigious Southern Scuffle. Competition is slated for a 10 a.m. start each day of the tournament.
