Knights battle to win over Iroquois

Logan Jaquay earned a first period pin at 113 in Eisenhower's road win at Iroquois on Wednesday.

LAWRENCE PARK – Eisenhower hit the road on Wednesday and received six forfeit wins en route to a 47-28 win over Iroquois.

“We looked a little flat tonight,” said Eisenhower coach Kris Black. “It’s a tough match to get up for, knowing they’re giving away a lot of forfeits, but we didn’t wrestle are best.”

The Knights have had a busy week with the North East Classic last weekend, followed by an emotional match against Saegertown on Monday.

That being said, there were some impressive performances on Wednesday, led by Logan Jaquay, who earned a first period pin at 113 and Nate Holt, who earned a third period pin at 132.

Black also noted the performance of Jake Williams at 120.

“Jake wrestled a good match, but ended up getting caught and pinned in the third period,” Black noted.

Matt Huling was involved in perhaps the most competitive match of the night, dropping a 5-4 decision to Draven Douglas at 195.

For the Knights, who still have all of their lofty goals in front of them, a trip to the Sharon Duals this weekend is up next.

“We’ll get back on track this weekend,” Black said. “They have pretty lofty goals as a team they want to accomplish and we can accomplish. But we still have to do what’s in front of us every night.”
