"I thought we wrestled well tonight," ONU head coach Ron Beaschler. "We are getting healthy at the right time and it was nice to get more of our starters back on the mat. We are wrestling well at the right time of the year and it showed tonight."

Ohio Northern took a quick 6-0 lead with a forfeit at 125 pounds.

The shutout was the first for Ohio Northern since Dec. 21, 2016, when the ONU posted a 50-0 win over Greensboro (N.C.) and a 55-0 win over Southern Virginia at the Washington & Lee (Va.) Duals.

The Polar Bears will compete as a JV squad this weekend at the Baldwin Wallace John Summa Invitational and will return to varsity action next Tuesday with a home dual with Muskingum on Senior Night.
