...successful return of junior tri-captain Max Meltzer to the wrestling squad Saturday at the Lone Star Duals propelled the Crimson to an overwhelming victory over Utah Valley State, its first dual match win of the season. But an injury to junior Robbie Preston, which forced him to concede his second match of the day and also took him out of his final bout, soured an otherwise good day for the squad. “It was great having [Meltzer] back,” Preston said. “He just wrestled really well and he is very important...
Despite traveling with only six wrestlers, the Harvard wrestling team finished at a respectable 18th out of 50 participating teams in the Midlands Championship, hosted by Northwestern at the Welsh-Ryan Arena just before the holiday weekend.

In the final, "Australia looked old, tired and bored," wrote former New South Wales coach Phil Gould, who used to inspire his players with war stories or late-night walks...
...decision and putting Harvard in a 17-6 hole. Some questionable calls by the referees went against the Crimson and hampered the comeback effort. “The referees weren’t giving us too many calls,” Preston said. “[Senior tri-captain] Mike Baria lost a heartbreaker [due in part to] a fleeing-the-mat call that I definitely didn’t agree with.” Fleeing the mat is a one or two-point penalty assessed for trying to get out of bounds to avoid being scored upon...
