Tournament time has arrived for the wrestling team as they prepare to compete in the CAA Championships on Saturday in Binghamton, New York.  While Mason's team success has not been great in conference, the Patriots have several individual wrestlers who have a chance to make an impact in the tournament and qualify for Nationals on March 15^th - 17^th in St. Louis, Missouri.

Senior 197 pounder Mendbagana Tovuujav has compiled a 17-3 overall record in competition this year and is a perfect 6-0 against CAA competition.  Freshman Vincent Rodriguez will also look to make an impact this weekend in his first CAA Championship.  The 125-pounder, who is 16-8 overall and 4-3 against conference opponents, has been wrestling as well as almost anyone on the team in the last half of the season. 

Last season, 157-pounder Jaaziah Bethea led the group in the tournament by placing 4^th overall in his weight class.  The junior will look to improve this year on his impressive performance last season.

The event will be hosted by Binghamton University and all seven CAA wrestling teams will compete.  The tournament will last all day on Saturday and live stats will be available through Binghamton University.
