Score: Roanoke 38, Ferrum 9

The Short story: The Roanoke College wrestling team scored a decisive 38-9 victory Thursday night over visiting Ferrum College in an Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) match on Senior Night. The program's five seniors were honored in a pre-match ceremony.  

With tonight's victory, the Maroons secured at least a three-way tie for the ODAC team title and can stand alone as the conference champion with a win at Averett University on Feb. 8.  

How it happened:
* The dual started at 141 pounds, and Roanoke's Mark Samuel recorded a pin, followed by Jarrod Pominville at 149 with another pin. Andrew McDougal had a technical fall at 157 and Jacob Cherry pinned his Panther opponent to put Roanoke up 23-0. Kyle Lee won a hard-fought 4-2 decision at 174 pounds before a brief intermission. 

* Vincenzo Corvetto scored a victory after the break and Lorenzo Pellot posted a technical fall at 197. Ferrum won the 285-pound match by decision, and the 125-pound match by forfeit. To close out the evening, two nationally-ranked 125-pound wrestlers squared off at 133 pounds, with Roanoke's Mac Cafurello (#13) getting the best of Adrian Samano (#11) by a 15-4 major decision. 

 Up Next:
*The Maroons (11-3/5-0 ODAC) host the Southeast Futures Championship Saturday during the day in the Bast Center and Stevens at 7 p.m. in the Cregger Center.
