Gardner-Webb Downs VMI 28-10 on Senior Day

Jha'Quan Anderson's pinfall win at 184 caps victorious home finale

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C. – On a day the program honored seven outgoing seniors, the Gardner-Webb wrestling team (7-8, 3-4 SoCon) downed Virginia Military Institute (9-10, 2-5 SoCon), 28-10, in Sunday afternoon's home finale at Paul Porter Arena. The Runnin' Bulldogs won eight of 10 matches, capped by a first-period pinfall victory by Jha'Quan Anderson at 184 pounds over VMI's Ethan Barrett.
 
Anderson, along with Aedyn Concepcion, Parker Corwin, Corbin Dion, Samuel Mora, Zach Price, and Drew West were honored in the pre-match Senior Day ceremony.
 
"I just want to say a special thank you to all of our seniors today," said head coach Daniel Elliott. "From the guys who have been with us for five years, to shorter times with some of our transfers, I'm always honored when guys decide to trust me with their future. I thank them for their efforts over the years."
 
The Runnin' Bulldogs will cap the regular season on Sunday, Feb. 25, at Appalachian State University at 2:00 p.m. The Southern Conference Championship is Saturday, March 9, at Holmes Convocation Center in Boone, North Carolina.
