Apps Battle for Undefeated SoCon Record, Title

BOONE, N.C. — Appalachian State University wrestling will look to finish undefeated in conference action and win the Southern Conference regular season championship outright when it takes on VMI on Wednesday.

The 17th-ranked Mountaineers (12-2, 6-0 SoCon) last went undefeated in league play in 2011-12 – head coach JohnMark Bentley’s first regular season championship. A win would give App State its most wins since 2011-12 (13-4) and fewest losses since 2002-03 (11-2).

Appalachian is coming off of its most dramatic match of the season when it downed Chattanooga by criteria after tying the Mocs 16-16 through 10 weight classes.
