Bucknell Vs Army

Bucknell edged Army 21-13 in Lewisburg, PA on January 26, 2025, picking up a crucial EIWA dual at Bucknell University. The final score belies a matchup where Army piled up bonus points but Bucknell’s results across the remaining weights produced the winning margin.

Army’s offense came in the form of three bonus-point victories. Charlie Farmer closed his match at 125 pounds with a 23-5 technical fall for five team points, Trae McDaniel scored a 10-2 major decision at 149 for four points, and Brady Colbert notched an 18-9 major decision at 285 for another four points. Those three results accounted for all 13 of Army’s team points and were the day’s most dominant individual performances.

What decided the dual was Bucknell’s ability to accumulate points in the other bouts. While specific match scores for those weights aren’t listed here, Bucknell’s collection of wins across the card added up to 21 team points, enough to overcome Army’s trio of bonus wins and secure the eight-point margin.

Both EIWA programs leave the mat with takeaways: Army showed the capacity for high-scoring individual efforts through Farmer, McDaniel, and Colbert, but Bucknell’s overall depth and consistency across the remaining weights decided the outcome in Lewisburg.
