NEW JERSEY – Three Northwestern wrestlers went 2-0 on Saturday in the Wildcats' matches at Princeton and Rider.
Â
Seniors Garrison White and Dominick Malone and sophomore Mitch Sliga won all of their matches to lead the way for Northwestern.
Â
Malone was dominant once again on Saturday, winning by tech fall (16-1) in the first match against Princeton's Jake Adkins before pinning Rider's Zach Valcarce in the second dual of the day. He improved to 8-1 so far in the 2015-16 season.
Â
Malone has won five matches by fall this year and has earned his team bonus points in seven of nine matches.

Â
Senior Jameson Oster picked up a win over 17th-ranked Jordan Laster of Princeton, 7-6 to increase his record to 5-2.
