Kenney, Greenwald Place at Midwest Classic

A pair of Seton Hill wrestlers placed in the top eight of the competitive two day Midwest Classic on Sunday afternoon in Indianapolis, Indiana.  The two helped the Griffins to a 22nd place finish in the event.  McKendree University won the event.

Tyler Kenney placed seventh at 141 pounds while Damon Greenwald was eighth at 174 pounds. 

Kenney opened the day with a 3-2 win to secure a top eight finish.  He then dropped a consolation quarterfinal match to fall into the seventh place match.  Kenney earned seventh place with a win by fall (7:53).

Greenwald started his day with a 10-8 overtime win to put himself in the top eight.  He dropped a tough 6-5 decision before falling by a 10-3 score in the seventh place match for an eighth place finish.

Austin Shaw dropped his first match of the day to be eliminated from the tourney.

The Griffins will be off for the Christmas break before returning to action at the NWCA National Duals in Louisville, KY on January 4th and 5th.
