Craig Beling, the only Harvard grappler to reach the semi-finals, placed sixth in the heavyweight class after losing in both the semis and the wrestlebacks.
Navy's Nick Mygas, who defeated Beling to earn the other spot in the Eastern finals--where he was pinned by Sefter--earned a trip to the NCAA finals for his second-place showing.
Mygas scored the first two points of his bout with Beling before the Crimson star escaped and took down the Midshipman for a 3-2 lead going into the second period.
The vocal Lehigh supporters in the Penn Palestra found little to cheer about when Beling took a commanding 9-2 lead in the second period before Newbern suddenly injured his knee.
Beling squares off against seventh seed Nick Mygas of Navy in tomorrow's second semi-final bout of the heavyweight division. The winner of Beling's bout enters the finals and is assured of a spot in the NCAA championship in Maryland.
