WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – First-period pins from senior Johnathan Secor (Pompton Lakes, N.J./Pompton Lakes) and sophomore Skylar Ebner (Muncy, Pa./Muncy Area) helped separate the 20^th-ranked Lycoming College wrestling team from Alfred State and secure a 33-9 dual meet win at Lamade Gym on Thursday night, Jan. 29.
 
Secor improved to 13-0 in dual meets as he quickly scored a takedown against Juan Nunez and secured the pin with 1:53 left in the first period, clinching the meet in the 197-pound bout. Ebner quickly followed, scoring a headlock on Anthony Osman in the first 15 seconds and nearly earning a pin before rolling out of bounds. After Osman escaped on the restart, Ebner got another headlock and quickly wrapped up his seventh pin of the season, tallying it 46 seconds into the match.
 
The win improved the Warriors to 12-3 overall, as they clinched a dual meet record of better than .700 on the season for the first time since the 2004-05 team went 20-5 overall.
 
The Warriors started the bout with a win, as freshman Kyle Drick (Allenwood, Pa./Montgomery Area) posted a 5-1 win over Austin Keough for his 24^th win of the year. After a sudden-victory win by the Pioneers (1-8 overall) tied the meet at 133 pounds, senior Caleb Willey (Towanda, Pa./Towanda Area) took a forfeit win at 141 pounds for his 90^th career win, becoming the 10^th Warrior to reach that plateau in the process.
 
Sophomore Seth Lansberry (Klingerstown, Pa./Line Mountain) followed with a pin with 30 seconds remaining in his bout against Kevin Thayer at 149 pounds. Sophomore Nolan Barger added an 8-2 win in a bout in which he notched more than five minutes of riding time against George VanValen at 165 pounds and freshman Brandon Conrad (Bloomsburg, Pa./Bloomsburg Area) followed with a 7-0 win over Josh Lord, giving Lycoming a 21-6 lead. After a decision by the Pioneers at 184, the duo of Secor and Ebner secured the win.
 
The Warriors get back on the mat on Sunday, Feb. 1, when they host King's (Pa.) in a 1 p.m. dual meet against Middle Atlantic Conference foes.
