Sophomore heavyweight Ian Jones leads the team in victories with a 14-2 record after placing third at the York College (PA) Invitational last weekend.  Fellow sophomore Sterling Briscoe is next with a 13-3 mark at 149 pounds.  Freshman Phillip Porto (165) and senior Kevin Gray (235/285) are just behind them with 11 wins apiece.

After this weekend, the Builders are off until January 5 when they travel to Waynesburg, Pa. for the Waynesburg Invitational.
