BETHLEHEM, Pa. — Lehigh rallied to beat Pennsylvania 24-14 at Lehigh University on Feb. 13, 2026, winning the final five bouts to erase a 14-6 halftime deficit.
Penn grabbed an early edge with back-to-back majors from No. 7 CJ Composto (16-3 at 141) and Cross Wasilewski (12-2 at 149), and Jude Swisher’s 3-1 decision at 157 over No. 11 Logan Rozynski pushed the Quakers to a 14-6 lead through five bouts.
Lehigh began the comeback after the break. No. 9 Max Brignola tied the dual momentum with a 5-1 decision at 165, using a third-period escape, a takedown and a riding-time point to turn a 1-1 match into a 5-1 final.
First-year Brady Collins followed with a 4-1 decision at 174, scoring a late second-period takedown and adding a riding-time point in the third to move Lehigh closer.
The decisive swing came in the upper weights. No. 17 Rylan Rogers produced a 12-3 major decision at 184, giving Lehigh the lead for good with takedowns in all three periods and additional +1 entries recorded in the second and third.
At 197, No. 33 Jt Davis delivered an overtime takedown 17 seconds into sudden-death to beat No. 29 Martin Cosgrove 4-1, the match-ending sequence recorded as a 3-point OT takedown that converted a 1-1 tie into a Lehigh decision.
The dual closed with No. 10 Nathan Taylor finishing at heavyweight with a 17-2 technical fall over John Pardo. Taylor recorded takedowns across the match and a third-period scoring entry that produced the technical fall; that result was worth five team points and pushed Lehigh to the 24-14 final.
Sheldon Seymour opened the night for Lehigh with an early takedown and a 3-1 decision at 125 over Davis Motyka. On Penn’s side, Evan Mougalian edged Mason Ziegler 1-0 at 133, the lone point coming on a third-period score, and the Quakers’ majors at 141 and 149 supplied much of Penn’s first-half advantage.
Lehigh’s late string of decisions, the 184 major by Rogers and the tech fall at 285 supplied the bonus points that created separation. The dual featured multiple ranked matchups and a ranked upset when Penn’s No. 17 Jude Swisher beat No. 11 Logan Rozynski at 157.
The result gave Lehigh a road-competitive win at home and ended the night with a 24-14 team score, reflecting late bonus scoring in the upper weights and a five-bout run to close the dual.
