Hackettstown, NJ: The Centenary University Wrestling teams took on the Warriors of East Stroudsburg. Both teams look to build on these matches as the season continues on. 
 

Cyclones nearly upset #20 ranked d2 in front of packed house, forfeit proves costly. At 165 lbs, Hunter Cleaver (Jr., Phillipsburg) showed tremendous toughness, battling through a mid-match injury to earn a dominant major decision and swing momentum in Centenary's favor. At 174 lbs, Reece Smith (So., Kittatinny) delivered in a clutch moment, fighting through a tight contest before scoring a late takedown to seal the victory and secure another key win for the Cyclones. Joe Innamorato (So., 149 lbs — Phillipsburg, NJ) , Danny Haws (Sr., 141 lbs — Lenape Valley, NJ), and Angelo Piazza (Sr., 197 lbs — Glen Rock, NJ) each delivered bonus-point victories, providing crucial team points and helping keep the dual within reach for the Cyclones.

"Really proud of the way the guys wrestled. pieces finally coming together. We out scored em winning 5 out of 9 matches, it hurts giving up bonus with our guy out at 125 with how good he is but he'll be back . I'm pleased with the overall performance of the team we need to keep up the intensity and battle through adversity so we are ready in March." Quoted by coach Garriques
