TULSA, Okla. -- Oak Glen High School graduate and West Virginia University junior Peyton Hall got into the second day of the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships on Friday.
Hall lost in the 165-pound consolation second round to finish his season with a 24-6 record. He is a three-time NCAA qualifier.
Pittsburgh redshirt senior and 20th-seeded Holden Heller scored a 9-7 sudden victory over the 14th-seeded Hall at the BOK Center on Friday afternoon.
Heller -- a three-year starter at Hofstra before transferring to Pittsburgh -- then lost to 12th-seeded Izzak Olejnik of Northern Illinois in the next round by injury default at the 5:40 mark.
On Thursday night, Hall had to fend off 30th-seeded Evan Barczak of Drexel for a 4-3 win in the consolation first round. Hall went up 3-0 before Barczak tied it in the third period. An escape with 48 seconds left gave Hall the win.
Hall went 1-2 at the NCAA Championships.
