The Raiders will now begin preparations for the NCAA Super Region I Championship Tournament, which will take place Saturday, Feb. Lastly, redshirt-junior Danny Scheib utilized a bear hug to score the initial takedown against fellow heavyweight Dustin Swanson enroute to a 10-2 major decision. He rode out his opponent for the rest of the match to finish off a 6-2 win. Down 2-1 on the scoreboard entering the third period, Shoemaker used his trademark Peterson roll from the bottom position to score a reversal and back points. Shoemaker was in a close matchup with KU 197-pounder Tyler Fisher until the final two minutes. But just as quickly as he found himself on his back, Polulak reversed the hold and planted Smay's shoulders the mat for a thrilling pin. The Ship 149-pound wrestler was perilously close to dropping his bout with Kutztown's Brenden Smay after he was slammed onto his back late in the opening period. In the next match, Polulak authored one of the biggest highlights of the Raiders' regular season. Miscovich kick-started the Shippensburg highlight reel with a takedown of KU's Trent Thompson in sudden victory, picking up a 10-8 decision in their match-up at 141 pounds. Kutztown (7-4, 3-3 PSAC) rode pins from 133-pounder KJ Fenstermacher and nationally ranked 184-pound wrestler Matt Weinberg, as well as decisions from Dalton Gimbor (165) and Ethan Baney (174). Graduate Al Miscovich, freshman Reese Polulak, freshman Trey Shoemaker and redshirt-junior Danny Scheib were responsible for the Raider wins. Shippensburg (9-9, 1-6 PSAC) scored 16 points against the Golden Bears, tied for the team's most against KU since February of 2011. The Shippensburg University wrestling team saw four of its wrestlers post exciting victories as the Raiders concluded their dual meet schedule with a loss to the Kutztown Bears Friday night inside Keystone Arena, 31-16.
