No. 12 Rutgers Wrestling (11-1, 1-1) traveled to Madison, Wisconsin Sunday afternoon for Big Ten dual meet against the No. 16 Badgers (6-0, 2-0). The Scarlet Knights would head home with their first loss on the season as Wisconsin took six of ten matches to earn the 19-14 victory.
At 125lbs, No. 30 Dylan Shawver took on No. 4 Eric Barnett of the Badgers and it was Barnett with a quick takedown about 15 seconds in. Shawver almost got out after about 45 seconds of riding time, but Barnett then threw Shawver to his back to maintain top control and almost scored nearfall points before Shawver got back to his belly.
