From the Air Force Falcons, the official site of the U. S. Air Force Academy Athletics:
“Led by individual titles from juniors Cole VonOhlen (Jackson, Minn.) and Jared Erickson (Newton, Utah) and freshman Dylan Hyder (Yelm, Wash.), the Air Force wrestling team wrapped up competition at the UNK Holiday Inn Open on Saturday [Nov. 18]. The Falcons finished with 12 placewinners, including nine in the Elite Division.”

“Meanwhile, Hyder compiled a 5-0 record at 133 pounds in the Amateur Division. In his first four matches, Hyder notched a pair of falls, a technical fall and a major decision to earn his spot in the championship bout. Hyder then scored a 4-1 decision over Fort Hays State’s Symon Seaton to win his first collegiate title.”
