Edinboro @ Rider

Rider cruised to a 34-6 victory over Edinboro at Rider University in Lawrenceville, NJ on January 14, 2024, outpacing the visitors by 28 points in a matchup dominated by bonus scoring. The Rams piled up team points through multiple bonus victories that Edinboro could not match, turning a competitive dual into a comfortable win.

The decisive stretch came from Rider’s trio of technical falls. Tyler Klinsky slammed a 22-6 technical fall at 125 pounds, Quinn Kinner closed his match with a 17-0 technical fall at 149, and Colton Washleski posted a 19-4 technical fall at 157. Those three bonus-point results provided the bulk of Rider’s offense and left little room for a comeback.

Rider also closed strong through the upper weights. At heavyweight, David Szuba delivered an 11-1 major decision to add four more team points, and the Rams picked up additional majors elsewhere to keep the cushion intact. Edinboro’s offense was limited to six total team points and could not string together the bonus results needed to shift momentum.

Ultimately the dual was decided by Rider’s ability to rack up bonus points in multiple matches rather than a single standout upset. The combination of three technical falls and a heavy-weight major turned this into a rout on paper, giving Rider a clear dual meet victory over Edinboro.
