DEKALB, Ill. - Austin Andres picked up a win at 197 pounds Sunday as SIUE wrestling finished the regular season with a 35-3 loss at Northern Illinois.

"It was not the ending to the tough dual season that we wanted," said SIUE Head Coach Jeremy Spates.

Andres bested NIU's Tristan Guaman 4-2. Aric Bohn picked up a victory in an extra match, defeating heavyweight Colin Jagielski 8-4.

"We came away with a few individual wins with Andres and Bohn," said Spates.

SIUE now will turn its attention to the Mid-American Conference Championships, which take place March 4-5 in Athens, Ohio.

"We are hoping to get healthy for the MAC Tournament and get some NCAA qualifiers," added Spates.
