Share this story
On Friday, the Pitt wrestling team was back in action against Virginia. The No. 12 Panthers (3-2) by the Cavaliers (2-2) in a dual that came right own to the final bout.
At 125 pounds, Colton Camacho continued as the Pitt starter in the first bout of the night. Camacho didn’t look great, unable to get much going offensively and being called for stalling twice, leading to a point for his opponent Patrick McCormick. But McCormick suffered the same fate and, 2-2 in overtime, Camacho got a sudden victory takedown for a 4-2 win, putting the Panthers up 3-0.

NC State (3-0, 1-0 ACC) traveled up to Charlottesville on Friday evening to kick-off their ACC schedule against the Virginia Cavaliers (1-1, 0-1). The Pack won seven of ten bouts, two for bonus points, which amounted to a 23-9 victory. And if you’re keeping track at home, that extends our nation-leading dual winning streak to 20.
The dual once again started at 125 pounds, and once again Jakob Camacho got us out to an early lead - this time to the tune of a 16-7 major decision. He really looks dialed in this season. I can’t wait to see how he stacks up against elite competition, but he’s a popular pick to make the NCAA finals opposite Iowa’s Spencer Lee in St. Louis.
