Hofstra @ Ohio State Recap

Ohio State defeated Hofstra 38-6 at The Ohio State University in Columbus, OH on November 24, 2024. The Buckeyes piled up bonus points across the lineup, turning a dual that never felt close into a decisive victory. Hofstra was limited to six team points while Ohio State collected several majors, technical falls and falls to separate themselves.

Brendan McCrone’s fall over Dylan Acevedo stood out among the bonus wins, and Nic Bouzakis added a 12-2 major decision that kept pressure on Hofstra through the lighter weights. Those early bonus results made it difficult for Hofstra to chip away at the deficit.

On the upper end of the lineup Ohio State finished emphatically. Luke Geog blanked Nikolas Miller 15-0 by technical fall, and heavyweight Nick Feldman closed things out with a 21-6 technical fall over Danny Church. Those tech falls supplied large chunks of team points and essentially sealed the dual.

Overall the match was decided by Ohio State’s ability to turn winning efforts into bonus points. Multiple majors, technical falls and a pair of pins gave the Buckeyes a 32-point margin, leaving Hofstra with little room to respond.
