A tight match was blown open with three straight victories by fall for the Central College wrestling team in a 30-11 triumph over St. Olaf.

Nursing a 9-8 lead through the first five bouts of the night, the Dutch got a much-needed shift of a momentum in the form of pins at 165, 174 and 184 pounds.

Last night’s win was the start of a big week for the Dutch, who are 2-0 in dual meets this season. They’re at Augustana in Illinois tonight, and then end the week at the Milwaukee School of Engineering Invitational on Saturday.
