Stout Competition Overpower Firestorm

Peoria, Ariz.- The Firestorm felt the full force of NCAA Division II wrestling, as they dropped all three duals in the Cactus Duals hosted at Liberty High School. Early matches went ACU's way against Colorado State-Pueblo and Saint Fraser, but the heavier weight classes were neutralized and could not carry the momentum. 

Jason Ramirez finished the day with a 2-1 record, notching wins in the first two matches before falling to Chase Beckett of Minnesota State-Mankato. Terrell Kinlicheenie nearly equaled Ramirez's feat, but lost an 11-10 decision in his final match to Minnesota State-Mankato's Trayton Anderson. By taking his lone match against Saint Fraser, Channing Porter has won two of his last three.
