Three wrestlers earn All-American honors on day two of NCAA championships

TULSA, OK NC State secured three All-Americans and will still compete for a top-10 finish on Saturday at the NCAA championships.

Trent Hidlay, a four-time All-American, was joined by sophomore Ed Scott and redshirt sophomore Kai Orine as the latest members of the wrestling program to earn All-American honors.

All three will close out the NCAA tournament on Saturday.

Hidlay fell short of his bid to return to the finals. The Lewiston, PA native lost to Penn State's Aaron Brooks Friday night, 6-3. It was a rematch of their contest in the finals in 2021.

Hidlay will face Marcus Coleman of Iowa State on Saturday. Scott ended Friday night on a high note, all the while getting a bit of revenge. Tied at nine, Scott earned a pin fall in the final seconds over Virginia Tech's Bryce Andonian.

Andonian defeated Scott in the regular season and at the ACC tournament earlier this month. Scott was down 8-5 in the second period before going on a run to tie it up late in the third period.

Scott will face Josh Humphreys of Lehigh on Saturday.

Orine started the bloodround with a 7-1 win over Kyle Biscoglia of Northern Iowa to start the consolation round four. Orine's night ended with a 5-4 loss to Aaron Nagao of Minnesota.

True freshman Jackson Arrington fell short of achieving All-American status, losing a close one to Brock Mauller of Missouri, 4-3. Arrington ends his rookie season with an overall record of 23-9.

Jarrett Trombley started the morning off with a 2-1 win over Noah Surtin of Missouri.

Arrington, Scott, Isaac Trumble and Owen Trephan all followed Trombley's lead in the consolation round with wins. Arrington got a two-point takedown in overtime for the win. The freshman wasn't done, beating Victor Voinovich, 5-1, in round three to advance.

Scott picked up a fall over Peter Pappas to keep his podium hopes alive. Trumble trailed Jacob Koser 6-0 in the opening period but rallied back to tie the match at eight in the third. That forced overtime and Trumble secured a takedown in the extra session for the win.

Ryan Jack saw his season come to an end with a 18-6 loss to Malyke Hines to start the consolation round. He finished his season at 21-5. Trombley, Trumble and Trephan would all be eliminated in the third round of consolation play.
