RALEIGH So much for any rust coming off the winter break.
For the first time since December 20,the NC State wrestling team was in action and the Pack was in midseason form, dominating Binghamton, 36-3 in front of 1,750 fans inside of Reynolds Coliseum.
With the win, NC State improves to 9-0 on the season as they gear up for ACC competition. The Pack will have one more pre-conference warm up, hosting Army next Friday, before jumping into league action.
If the Bearcats were the next to last quiz, NC State looks more than ready for the conference test.
The Pack dropped the first match of the night when Micah Roes defeated No. 24 Jarrett Trombley, 3-1. NC State won the final nine matches of the night, including three major decisions and two pin falls.
The Pack is now 4-0 all-time versus Binghamton, the school where Pat Popolizio coached from 2007-12.
NC State went 2-0 in head-to-head matchups of ranked opponents on Friday. In the 184-pound class, No. 3 Trent Hidlay shook off his first loss of the season (in New Orleans) and defeated No. 23 Jacob Nolan, 13-3. The Lewistown, Pa. native was never in serious jeopardy, jumping out to a 6-2 lead after one. Hidlay (13-1) piled it on from then on, scoring on takedown after takedown in the final two periods.
In the heavyweight division, No. 13 Owen Trephan took on No. 21 Cory Day. Trephan, who has been on a tear lately, won his third straight match, picking up an 11-0 win.
While the Pack remained in control after the opening bout, there was some drama in the middle classes. In the 174-pound class, Alex Faison found himself down 2-0 to Sam DePrez in the first period. DePrez led 3-2 late in the second, but Faison rallied to tie the match at three heading into the final period.
Faison had a late flurry in the third to win 7-3. In the 165 class, Derek Fields led by one (4-3) in the third period, before getting a huge, momentum shifting two-point takedown over Dimitri Gamkrelidze. Fields would pull away in the third for a 6-4 win.
No. 10 Ed Scott and No. 7 Isaac Trumble each picked up pin falls for the Wolfpack. Scott's pin gave the Pack a 16-2 advantage halfway through the match. Trumble picked up his sixth fall of the season when he pinned Cayden Bevis with four seconds remaining in the match.
