Arizona State vs. Columbia

Columbia Men's Wrestling knocked off Arizona State Men's Wrestling 24-16 on January 31, 2026; the meet location was not reported. The Rams’ ability to pile up bonus points in the middle weights separated the teams in this dual.

A pivotal stretch from 149 through 184 produced three bonus-point wins for Columbia. At 149, Richard Fedalen delivered a 20-4 technical fall over Daniel Miranda, putting five team points on the board. Later in that sequence Nick Fine turned in a 10-0 major decision at 174, and Joe Curtis followed with a fall at 184, combining for a run of bonus scoring that pushed Columbia ahead.

Arizona State countered with a big moment of its own when No. 3 Kaleb Larkin recorded a fall over Kai Owen at 157, a six-point swing that kept the Sun Devils within reach. Despite that high-profile win, ASU could not overcome Columbia’s string of extra-point results in the middle weights.

The match ultimately came down to Columbia converting opportunities into bonus points while holding in the tight decision bouts. Columbia’s tech fall, major decision, and pin provided the cushion the Rams needed in a 24-16 victory, and Arizona State’s lone marquee answer was Larkin’s pin.
