Eads Wins Twice, Falls Short of All-America Status
Park City, Kan.–Joe Eads (Sr., Morrison, Ill., Biology) closed out his collegiate career with a strong showing, but came up just shy of once again being an All-American as he competed at the NAIA Men’s Wrestling National Championship Friday.
The 149-pounder, who entered as the #12 seed, won twice, but also lost twice in being eliminated in Session #2. His efforts netted WPU 3.5 points which is 40th overall. This coming a year after finishing seventh for his first All-America honor.
Eads opened the day with a nail-biting victory over Jovon Mitchell of Missouri Valley, winning 5-2 in the first tiebreaker. After being tied 1-1 through the three regulation periods and overtime, he was on top for the first tiebreaker 30-second period and rode Mitchell out. Eads also put Mitchell to his back for a four-point near-fall. Mitchell was then on top and while staying in control, he only collected one penalty point, giving Eads the win.
Eads Qualifies, Statesmen Place Seventh at Heart Championship
Oskaloosa–Joe Eads (Jr., Morrison, Ill., Biology) shook off an early loss and went on a revenge tour the remainder of the day to earn another bid to nationals as the William Penn men’s wrestling team competed at the Heart of America Athletic Conference Championship Saturday.
Host WPU placed seventh out of nine teams with 48.5 points, while #1 Grand View topped the team standings with 216.5 points. Missouri Valley was a distant runner-up with 146.5 points.
Eads dropped his first bout 7-3 to Jovon Mitchell of Missouri Valley, but the 149-pounder rallied with four straight wins, including three by fall. In the third-place match, to guarantee himself a return trip to the NAIA National Championships, he pinned Mitchell in the first period. It will be Eads’ second trip to the final event of the year.
