UTC’s starters today
125—Alonzo Allen; 133—Chris Debien; 141—Roman Boylen; 149—Dylanger Potter; 157—Trey Watson; 165—Justin Lampe; 174—Sean Mappes; 184—Bryce Carr; 197—Clay Dent; 285—Jared Johnson.
Clay Dent will be in the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga wrestling lineup this morning when the Mocs host the Southeastern Fire.
In the season-opening match, scheduled to begin at 11, the Mocs again will wrestle at Chamberlain Field, site of the team’s Blue-Gold intrasquad match last week.
“The crowd was awesome, and I’d bet there were at any given time at least 300 people there,” coach Heath Eslinger said of his decision to move the opener from Maclellan Gym. “As soon as we were done last Thursday, there was so much traction on social media.”
Dent was one of those to provide some of the Blue-Gold fireworks, edging nationally eighth-ranked Scottie Boykin in the 197-pound match.
