ERIE, Pa. -- The Mercyhurst College wrestling team hits the road this weekend for the Super Region I Duals, hosted by Newberry College.
The Lakers (2-6) look to snap a four-match losing streak when they match up against regional foes Anderson, Limestone, Belmont Abbey and UNC-Pembroke.
Headling the Lakers lineup is the nation's top-ranked 165-pounder and defending national champion
Josh Shields. Also nationally-ranked is 157-pounder
Andy Lamancusa, who sits at No. 3 in the lastest National Wrestling Coaches Association poll after occuping the top spot for the last three rankings.
A youthful but deep lineup will be put to the test as the Lakers wrestle four duals in one day before returning to the Mercyhurst Athletic Center on Jan. 30 for a tri-match with cross-town rival Gannon and perennial powerhouse Newberry College.
Fans and media unable to attend Saturday and Sunday's Super Region I Duals sessions will be able to follow all of the duals with live statistics, updated results and full box scores courtesy of the Newberry College Sports Information Department.
