Wrestling Wins Electric City Championship

The Muhlenberg wrestling team swept through four matches to win the championship at Scranton's Electric City Duals.
 
The duals tournament championship was the second in as many years for the Mules, who captured their own Scotty Wood Duals last year.
 
Senior Jimmy Fratantoni went 4-0 on the day at 184, scoring two pins, a technical fall and a major decision. The tech fall gave him sole possession of the school record for careers techs (11).
 
Fratantoni's record-breaking technical fall came in a 23-18 win against Oneonta, a team that tied for 10th at the NCAA Championships last year. The match was not as close as the final score indicated; Muhlenberg had a 23-6 lead through eight bouts.
 
Freshman Billy Moore pinned his opponent in a seesaw 133-pound bout for the first of his three wins. Junior Austin Sherman gave Muhlenberg the lead for good with a 6-2 decision at 149; he went 3-0 on the day to remain undefeated on the season at 8-0.
 
Sherman's win was followed by decisions from juniors Brian Jamison, Dylan Schwartz and Mike Cannon. Schwartz won on a takedown 19 seconds into overtime after regulation ended in a 1-1 tie.
 
The Mules used their depth throughout the tournament, giving their younger wrestlers some experience. Freshman Angelo Mahaffey went 3-0 at 157 and 165, winning by major decision in a 24-18 win against Lackawanna.
 
Senior Gennaro Cerminara also posted a major decision vs. Lackawanna for his 70th career win.
 
Muhlenberg won seven consecutive bouts, including a major decision by Moore and the first of Fratantoni's two pins, in a 25-14 defeat of host Scranton. Last year, the Mules suffered a 27-6 loss to the Royals.
 
Moore, Fratantoni and junior Scott Schaeffer all posted first-period pins as Muhlenberg wrapped up the tournament title with a 48-10 win against Keystone.
