Another Michigan win over state. This time on the mat. The grapplers easily clobbered sparty, 26-6.
Only down thing is that the #1 heavyweight in the country, freshman Adam Coon, was handed his first collegiate defeat. His career record is 22-1.

Granted, we are only 24 days into the year so it isn't a lot of data, but thus far, 2014 has been a rather nice year when it comes to opportunities to make our conference brethren just an hour or so up the freeway a little sad on occasion. Thus far, I would definitely not complain about it.

The State guy, McClure is a senior and was the 8 seed in the NCAA championship last year. He's really good and experienced.
