Big Red Downs Grapplers

First impressions can last too long in wrestling.

The Harvard wrestlers were unable to recover from an early deficit against Cornell Saturday at the Malkin Athletic Center, losing 26-14 in front of 75 spectators. The defeat dropped the grapplers' record to 3-4 in dual meets. The Big Red raised its record to 2-3.

Cornell, the defending Ivy champions, captured the first six events and jumped out to an insurmountable 24-0 lead. The Crimson responded with three wins and a tie in the final four matches, but fell short of victory.
