Seniors Bobby Latessa (157) and Matt Button (165) lost their bouts, 6-2 and 6-4, respectively, before junior Patrick Ziemnik fell in a major decision at 174 to put victory out of reach for Harvard. The Crimson heavyweights were responsible for the best showing on the day with Rowsey and senior Jonathan Butler picking up two wins at 184 and 197, respectively. Sophomore Andrew Knapp lost a close match at heavyweight, 2-1, to end the morning’s competition. ARMY...
