Following its fourth consecutive regular season Southern Conference title, the App State wrestling team participated in the SoCon Wrestling Championship on March 10 at the Holmes Convocation Center.
Eight teams traveled to Boone hoping to secure their tickets to the NCAA wrestling championships, including fellow regular season title winners Campbell University and the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga.
Three App State wrestlers secured automatic berths into the NCAA championships. Senior Randall Diabe, junior Cary Miller and sophomore Codi Russell all won their respective weight classes, clinching a spot for each of them.
Junior Matt Zovistoski will also participate in the NCAA championships after receiving an at-large bid following his third place finish in the SoCon championship.
