SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – Chadron State avenged a dual loss from earlier this season, defeating Sioux Falls 29-10 in a Sunday afternoon dual in South Dakota. 

Although the Cougars were victorious 31-14 back on November 21, The Eagles turned the tides with a new and improved lineup. Chadron State had different wrestlers at 124 (Adrianna Lopez), 131 (Piper Cadden), 138 (Meredith Nash) and 180 (Cosette Desrosiers) compared to its last meeting with USF, and won at all those weights after dropping them in November.

Only six of the possible 10 matchups were contested, as CSC picked up forfeit wins at 103 and 110 while Sioux Falls got a forfeit win at 160. Neither team had a 117-pound wrestler, so it went as a double forfeit with no points awarded to either side.

Of the six bouts wrestled, Chadron State won five, picking up the four mentioned above plus a routine win by Esther Peters at 207 pounds. Peters and Lopez each had 10-0 tech falls while Nash had the dual's only pin at 138 pounds. CSC's other two victories were by decision – Cadden took an 8-0 lead and held on to win 8-6 at 131 and Desrosiers emerged with a 3-0 decision win at 180. 

Women's wrestling will compete next at the RMAC Championships in Colorado Springs, Colorado on Saturday, January 31. Wrestlers from each of the conference's five programs will compete for team and individual tournament titles at each of the sport's 10 weight classes.
