MILWAUKEE – The MSOE wrestling team took to the mats once against inside Hotchkin Arena, this time for their lone dual of the season at home. In spite of falling by the score of 24-22 to the Falcons of Concordia Wisconsin, the Raiders wrestlers performed on one of the highest levels we've seen all season.  The Red & White wrestled in seven weight classes and won four matches which included three pins and a major decision.
