Seton Hills edges Millersville on criteria

| By:
GREENSBURG, Pa. - Seton Hill edged Millersville by the narrowest of margins in Saturday's PSAC wrestling dual. The final score stood 21-21, but Seton Hill claimed the victory based on its six matches won to Millersville's four. 

Millersville (4-7, 1-5 PSAC) received wins from Devin Flannery at 133, Guy DeLeonardis at 165, Anthony Yacovetti at 174 and Jordan Espinosa at 285. Three of those four victories scored six teams points. Espinosa and DeLeonardis each scored falls. Seton Hill improved to 7-5 overall and 3-4 in PSAC competition. 

MATCH HIGHLIGHTS
•  Flannery got the Marauders the team lead in the second bout of the dual. He built an early 7-1 lead before his opponent, Bryce Wilkes was injured on a takedown. Wilkes could not return to the mat, giving Flannery an injury forfeit in the second period. Seton Hill scored narrow 5-2 and 5-3 decisions in the next two weight classes, and then got an all-important four-point major decision by just one point (14-6) at 157. 
• Millersville rallied, though, and DeLeonardis scored his fourth pin of the season, sticking James Baxter 54 seconds into the second period. Yacovetti followed by grinding out a 2-0 decision. However, Seton Hill got its own close decision at 184, and a major decision at 197 put the Griffins in front 21-15. Espinosa delivered the six points Millersville needed to tie the score, pinning John Meyers in just 37 seconds, but the tiebreaker went to Seton Hill.
