COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES 33, NEWMAN 12
Mines won its final three bouts, including a pin-pin finish from Anderson Salisbury and Anthony Atria, to run away with a 33-12 win over Newman in the opener of the Midwest Duals at Nebraska-Kearney.

In a dual that was closer than the final score would indicate, Mines led by just six points through seven bouts before putting it away at the end. The Orediggers benefited from the two falls as well as a pair of Newman forfeits at 157 and 165.

Christian Lopez and Weston DiBlasi got Mines off to a winning start thanks to 9-3 and 9-6 decisions at 125 and 133, respectively, but Newman took the lead back on Colby Schreiner's fall over Will LOecke at 141 and Hunter Dietrich's 3-1 win over Carson Dulitz at 149. The two forfeits, however, put Mines back in front before the Jets pulled closer as JD Johnson outlasted Levi Farris 10-8 at 174.

That made it an 18-12 dual through seven matches before Ryan Cody earned a 12-6 win over Vincenzo Oliva at 184, and Salisbury needed just 2:21 to win his 197-pound bout before Atria earned a second-period fall of his own.

COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES 24, CENTRAL MISSOURI 14
Mines prevailed in another down-to-the-wire dual as they defeated Central Missouri 24-14 to wrap up the Midwest Duals.

The Orediggers improved to 8-1 overall, again capping the dual with two straight wins to secure a win from a close team score. Anderson Salisbury won at 197 pounds, his 79th career victory, to enter the Mines all-time top-10 for wins.

The dual tightened in the middle after Mines got out to a 15-3 start courtesy of a forfeit, Grayston DiBlasi's first-period fall and a 6-0 Teague Dilbeck shutout. UCM got points back with JD Culp's razor-thin 3-2 decision over Daniel Caddy at 157 before Jack Damenti improved to 8-0 in duals with a 10-4 win at 165 over Nolan Saale. 

UCM reeled off consecutive wins at 174 and 184 to make it 18-14 and give them a chance, but Salisbury shut the door with a 5-1 decision at 197 before Deandre Rucker capped it with a 3-1 win at heavyweight.
