The Purdue wrestling team finished fourth at the 24th-Annual Virginia Duals in Hampton, Va., winning two of three duals in the Saturday evening sessions of the consolation bracket.
The Boilermakers defeated The Citadel and Arizona State to earn a berth in the third-place dual. Purdue dropped the final dual to Big Ten foe Wisconsin, the second loss to the Badgers during the tournament.
Against The Citadel, Purdue overcame a 13-0 deficit after three weights to post a 25-13 victory. The Boilermakers won the last seven matches, including a fall at 197 pounds and a major decision at heavyweight.
At 6p.m., Purdue locked up with Arizona State, ranked No.10 in the nation. After dropping the opening five matches in the dual, the Boilermakers stormed back to tie the contest at 20-20 after completion of all weight classes.
The outcome of the dual came down to criteria, which the Boilermakers won. With each team winning five matches and each team claiming one six-point victory (ASU by fall, Purdue by default), the match looked to technical falls. Neither team claimed a five-point technical fall (one including a nearfall), but Purdue's Ben Wissel (Richmond, Ind.) won at 184-pounds by a four-point technical fall (15-point decision with no nearfall) gave the Boilermakers the win.
Purdue turned back to Wisconsin, a team that defeated the Boilermakers one day earlier, for a chance at third place in the prestigious tournament. However, the Old Gold and Black could not muster a win against the Badgers, falling 22-12.
Purdue is now 13-2 on the season, just three dual wins away from tying the program record for wins in a season (16 in 1996-97 and 1997-98).
The Boilermakers return to the mat on Sunday, Jan. 18, in Charleston, Ill, against the Panthers of Eastern Illinois for the last non-conference dual of the season. Purdue opens the Big Ten season on Friday, Jan. 23, at Northwestern.
