"Overall, the day was up and down," commented Head Coach
Rik Dahl. "I am happy we ended on a good note like we did but we had a lot of good moments but some inconsistency where we gave up silly points. It was hard to lose the first dual to SMSU on a tiebreak and we ran into a buzzsaw with Augie. It was good to rebound with Drury and get a win on the day."
The Raiders will head into winter break with a 4-2 dual record and strong performances in three open tournaments. "It will be nice for our guys to get some rest and focus on the end of the semester. We had a good first half and look to build on the good things we have done."
The Raiders hit the match next on January 13th when the head to Hastings, Nebr. for the Hastings College Duals.Â
