Four Ohio Northern wrestlers are still alive after the first day of the two-day NCAA Division III Midwest Regional Wrestling Championships on Friday afternoon at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne.

Junior Dylan Dolph (Canton/South), sophomore Gavin Nelson (Oregon/Clay) and freshmen Seth Transue (Plain City/Dublin) and Nate Barcaskey (Moon Township, Pa./Moon Area) are all in the consolation quarterfinals.

Each man will need three victories without a loss on Saturday to finish third and receive a bid to the NCAA III Championships March 10-11 at LaCrosse, Wis
