MONTGOMERY, Ala.— Adding a trio of duals to its schedule on Friday, the Montreat women's wrestling team spent the afternoon down in Alabama at the Red Lady Duals, hosted by Huntingdon College. Taking on a pair of ranked NAIA foes and the host institution, the Cavaliers suffered their initial three defeats of the season as they ended sixth out of six programs and fell to 4-3 overall and 1-1 against Mid-South Conference (MSC) schools.
The Cavs began their day with a matchup against No. 6-ranked Lindsey Wilson College. Battling a fellow MSC institution, Montreat opened the dual with a 3-0 lead thanks to
Morgan Repasky's 12-10 decision victory at 103; however, the Cavaliers managed one additional team point during the remainder of the clash.
Nicole Lewis brought the squad's total to four points during the 160-lb weight class showdown, but the Blue Raiders notched wins across the final nine bouts. As a result, LWC secured a 43-4 triumph.
After squaring off against a top-10 foe, Montreat then went head-to-head against the 20
th-ranked Central Methodist University Eagles. Repasky and Lewis once again registered team points as the former captured another triumph in the opening bout, this time via an 11-1 tech fall, and the latter snagged a point at 160. CMU owned the upper hand in eight of the 10 weight classes, though, and it eventually claimed a 36-5 victory.
Meeting up in the fifth-place dual, the Cavs attempted to topple the Huntingdon College Hawks.
Uriah Peters-Gutierrez tallied Montreat's lone pin of the afternoon at 160, and
Annastasia Skoda garnered a point during her 131-lb bout. While the Cavaliers increased their team score in each dual, they couldn't prevent the hosts from ultimately seizing a 34-6 win.
Montreat remains in Montgomery, Ala. tomorrow for the Red Lady Open, another event hosted by Huntingdon College. Tournament bouts are slated to start at 10 a.m.
