149 lbs. Remington Alves (Portsmouth, RI) and freshman 285
lbs. Brandon Regnault (Johnston, RI) each picked up pins as
Rhode Island College defeated Coast Guard, 37-6, in a Pilgrim
Wrestling match held at The Murray Center. |

RIC quickly took a 10-0 lead as
junior Kyle Bousquet (Pascoag, RI) won by forfeit and was
followed by a major decision, 12-4, in favor of junior Brandon
Gauthier (Lowell, MA) who had bumped up a weight from his normal
125 lbs. position. |

Alves |
|
|
|
Coast Guard freshman Scott Coull
(Plymouth, MA) pulled the visitors within seven points, 10-3,
with a decision at 141 lbs., but Alves’ win by fall quickly put the
Anchormen back up by a comfortable margin. |

Senior
Andy Snyder (Tamasqua, PA) beat RIC sophomore Ryan Rheaume
(Riverhead, NY), 5-1, in a battle of the No. 2 and 8 ranked
wrestlers in New England at 157 lbs. |
|
|
|
That
would prove to be the last win of the night for the Bears, who gave
up a forfeit and decisions by junior Brendan Guarino (Lodi, NJ)
and senior Chris Dean (Copiague, NY) to seal their fate. |
|
|
|
Regnault’s
pin at heavyweight capped the night for the hosts who will close out
the regular season at home against Trinity and Bridgewater State on
Sunday, Feb. 13. Dean, along with Travis Drappi (West Orange, NJ)
and Kevin Sutherland (Dauphin, PA), will be honored prior to
the BSU match as part of Senior Day. |
