Princeton @ Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh men's wrestling edged Princeton 20-19 in Pittsburgh, PA on November 14, 2025 in a dual that came down to bonus points and a late swing in the upper weights. The one-point margin reflected a back-and-forth night between ranked wrestlers and big-match finishes.

Princeton got two major contributions from ranked grapplers. At 125 pounds Marc-Anthony McGowan (#18) beat Tyler Chappell 13-4 by major decision for four team points, and at 184 pounds Kole Mulhauser (#16) recorded a fall over Chase Kranitz, a six-point bonus that at one stage had Princeton firmly in contention.

Pittsburgh answered with heavy hitters of its own. Mac Stout (#5) delivered a dominant technical fall, beating Conor McCloskey 19-4 to add five bonus points, and heavyweight Dayton Pitzer (#13) sealed the dual with a fall over Sebastian Garibaldi worth six team points. Those two upper-weight bonus results supplied the margin Pittsburgh needed to finish ahead.

Ranked bouts went both ways, and the extra points from pins and techs proved decisive in a tight meet. With bonus scoring accounting for the bulk of the swing, Pittsburgh left with the 20-19 victory while Princeton showed it could compete with ranked opponents across multiple classes.
