RALEIGH – Opening the 2025-26 dual-match wrestling season, seventh-ranked NC State dominated its match in Reynolds on Saturday with Northern Colorado in the first-ever meeting between the two.
Starting the evening, redshirt-freshmen Gavin Linsman and Luca Felix wrestled in two exhibition matches at 141 lbs and 149 lbs.
Shortly after, Vincent Robinson's 2025 125 lb national championship banner was dropped from
the rafters of Reynolds Coliseum, to be seen for the first time.
Each of the three true freshmen, Will Denny at 165 lbs, Cason Howle at 197 lbs, and Everest Ouellette at 285 lbs, who made their collegiate debut, claimed wins to start their career with the Pack.
Coming off their redshirt seasons, Jackson Arrington and Ryan Jack both made their returns to the NC State lineup. Arrington made his official debut at 157 lbs after spending the previous three seasons at 149 lbs.
The only loss for the Pack was by Zach Redding at 133 pounds in sudden victory, to two-time NCAA Qualifier No. 13 Dominick Serrano at 133 pounds.
Robinson, Jack, and Buesgens each took the lead with bonus point wins by major decision.
Up Next
The Pack travels to the inaugural National Duals in Tulsa, Okla., to face Northern Iowa in the opening round on Saturday, November 15th at the BOK Center.
