Raider grapplers fall twice in road double dual

IOWA FALLS — Slow starts in both duals Tuesday night ended up being too much to overcome on the road for the Collins-Maxwell/Baxter wrestling team.

The Raiders lost the first four matches against host Iowa Falls-Alden during a 54-22 loss and then dropped the first six contested matches in a 51-18 loss to Roland-Story.

Evan Bianchi and Dylan Williams both went 2-0 on the night, but the wins were few far and between for the Raiders, who dropped to 3-15 in duals this season.

Roland-Story improved to 19-5 on the year after its 48-22 win over the Cadets.

Freshman Caleb Fullerton got the first win for CMB against Iowa Falls-Alden in the opening dual. He defeated Darin Lemke by an 8-0 major decision at 126 pounds.

The Cadets though rolled off four straight wins to lock up the dual. Bianchi pinned Owen Kinnetz in 57 seconds to give CMB six points.

The final two wins for the Raiders came from Charles Robertson and Williams, who both won by fall at 195 and 220, respectively.

The Cadets won four matches by fall and took four forfeits in the win.

Roland-Story jumped out to a 33-0 lead over CMB in the Raiders’ final dual of the night. Bianchi (17-6) put the Raiders on the board with a first-period pin over Liam Schevermann at 160.

Williams won by forfeit at 220 and Archer McFadden (18-7) ended the dual with a win by fall oer MacKinley Harris.

Robertson is 22-2 on the year after he lost by fall to Roland-Story’s Tanner Stille.

Roland-Story recorded six pins and were handed two forfeits by the Raiders.

CMB returns to the mats at 10 a.m. Saturday when it heads to Nevada to take part in the Heart of Iowa Conference tourney. They travel to Southeast Warren on Jan. 28.
