...with how the guys fought the whole time. We went into matches that we really could not win because of the forfeits we had to make.” The Crimson also benefitted from the rise of some young talents, which included freshmen Louis Caputo (184 lbs.) and Andrew Flanagan (157 lbs.). Flanagan finished first in the EIWAs, and was one of the five Harvard wrestlers—along with Caputo—to qualify for the NCAA tournament. Flanagan, Ogunwole, and Meltzer all made the All-Ivy first team, while Preston and Caputo made the second team...

Some successes come as a surprise, but others are expected. At the NCAA Wrestling Championships, freshman Andrew Flanagan provided the surprise, and junior tri-captain Bode Ogunwole’s All-American performance came as a sure thing. Ogunwole, as a result of a 4-0 Friday run through the tournament’s consolation bracket, earned a sixth-place showing, giving him All-America status for the year. He is only the 17th Harvard All-American in the wrestling program’s history. “I feel pretty happy to make All-American,” Ogunwole...
