EAST LANSING, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – For the second consecutive week junior transfer Filiberto Colon placed in an open tournament, and this week sophomore Mike LeHolm joined him, as the Eastern Michigan University wrestling team competed at the Michigan State Open at Jenison Field House Saturday, Nov. 13.
Colon and LeHolm placed fourth in the open division at 133-lbs. and 141-lbs., respectively. Colon has now placed in his first two tournaments of the season and the first two events of his young Eagle career after taking home first place in the open division at the EMU Open last Saturday, Nov. 6. For LeHolm, it's the second straight year he has enjoyed being a placewinner at the MSU Open as he took home the title at 141 in the freshmen/sophomore division last year.
Colon started his tournament with an opening round loss to Erik Spjut of Virginia Tech by a 7-0 decision. He then bounced back to advance past four straight opponents via three pins and an injury default before setting up a rematch against Spjut in the third place match. The result was much closer, but Colon once again fell victim to Spjut by a 4-1 decision.
LeHolm, who placed second last week at the EMU Open, took fourth this week. The sophomore breezed past his first two opponents with a first round pin of former Mid-American Conference champion, Pat McLemore (NIU), at 2:29 and a 6-1 second round decision over Alex Warren of Indiana.
After dropping a 12-4 major decision to Juan Archuleta of Purdue, LeHolm bounced back to defeat returning All-American Cashe Quiroga of Purdue, 2-1, and advance to the third place match. It went the distance and then some, but Matt Irwin of the University of Indianapolis took the bout with a 2-1 overtime decision.
Other notable Eagles that recorded multiple match wins, but missed out on placing include: Andrew Novak (133#), Seth Schaner (141#), J.J. Johnson (157#) and Nick Hendrick (165#) in the open division, as well as, Brent Winekoff (157#) in the freshmen/sophomore division.
Head Coach Derek DelPorto and his squad traveled to East Lansing with just 15 wrestlers this week in preparation of the start of the dual season next weekend.
The Eagles will be back in action next Sunday, Nov. 21, to compete in the Sprawl & Brawl triangular hosted by Binghamton University. EMU will take on Harvard, Sacred Heart and host Binghamton in the one day event in Binghamton, N.Y.
