UNION, NJ – Lackawanna College men's wrestling jumped ahead early, then rallied late for the 29-21 victory over Kean University in non-league wrestling dual action on Friday night inside Harwood Arena at Kean in the Garden State.
 
The Falcons (2-1) led after the first five bouts thanks to impressive wins by fall from Sam Vissers (Laurel, MD), Matt Gashi-Brito (Fairfax, VA), and Luke Evans (Clarks Summit, PA), but three-straight Kean victories, two by decision, made it 21-18, Cougars, heading into the final two bouts.
 
Zion Adams (Catonsville, MD) led his bout against Shawn Pawlowski, 10-6, in the second round, but Pawlowski suffered an arm injury that forced him to medically forfeit, giving the Falcons six points and putting Lackawanna back on top at 24-21.
 
The Cougars (0-6) would need at least a decision at heavyweight, then have to hope to win on points as a tiebreaker, but Brodie Daugherty (Manheim, PA) was not to be denied. The first-year grappler built an early lead through takedowns and near-falls, eventually overwhelming his opponent for the tech fall win at 20-4 midway through the second period.
 
Lackawanna then went unbeaten through the exhibition matches, capping a successful doubleheader dual sweep for the Falcons.
 
Lackawanna College men's wrestling is right back to work on Sunday, November 23^rd, with a road event at East Stroudsburg University. The Falcons will take on the hosts, Marymount University, and Felician University in a quad dual starting at 10:00am ET at East Stroudsburg University.
