Folks, this year SectionIXwrestling.com is excited to bring you coverage of Army West Point Wrestling. We are fortunate to have a major DI program right in our backyard. AWP is Hudson Valley’s hometown team.
Wrestling fans will be able to see the Black Knights host #23 Oregon State, #2 Iowa and #1 Penn State all in the month of November.
We will start our coverage with some weight class previews that have been provided by the Army West Point coaching staff!
125 Pounds
Freshman Ethan Berginc is the projected starter. Berginc was a PA state champ and spent the last season at USMAPS. He placed at nearly every open tourney he entered.
Two freshmen from Illinois will fight for time at this weight, both of whom also attended the prep school last year. Nain Vasquez from powerhouse Montini Catholic, and an undersized Charlie Farmer both had successful prep years.
133
Rich Treanor won an EIWA medal as a freshman and is back for his sophomore year. He also placed in the FILA Junior freestyle event in Las Vegas this past spring.
Treanor will be challenged by yet another stud lightweight moving down from the prep school, Ryan Franco. Franco hails from Clovis North, CA and has a wide-open attacking style.
This is a deep weight for the Knights, as we may see freshman Joe Couch from Bullis School Maryland, or a pair of sophomores- Jake Staud or Daniel Uhorchuk.
Check back soon for the details on 141/149
We are home town fans of one of your wrestlers, Ben Pasiuk. Was wondering if these matches will be televised or live streamed.
Thank you,
Margie Kaltenbach
