BETHLEHEM, Pa. - For a second year in a row, six American University wrestlers have advanced to the second day of the EIWA Championships. Leading the way are top-seeded Kizhan Clarke (149) and fourth-seeded Tanner Harvey (184), both undefeated at 2-0 so far.

Also advancing through the consolation bracket are fifth-seeded Gage Curry (125), Tim Fitzpatrick (165), Anthony Wokasch (174) and Niko Camacho (285).

Saturday's semifinals and consolation quarterfinals begin at 10 a.m., followed by consolation semifinals and seventh-place matches. The EIWA Hall of Fame ceremony is set for 2:15 p.m., with championship finals to follow.

DAY ONE RECAP

• The Eagles featured in three of eight pigtail matches to start the day, winning one of those at 197 pounds with William Jarrell getting a shutout victory by decision, 5-0 over Harvard's Evan Callahan.
• The first wrestler through to the quarterfinals was fifth-seeded Gage Curry at 125 pounds. After a slow start against Bucknell's Geo Barzona, Curry got the escape for a 1-0 lead in the second and went on to win 5-0. It was his second EIWA first-round win over Barzona, who he also beat in 2018.
• Curry wasn't able to make it a 2-0 day, falling 3-2 to Army's Trey Chalifoux in the quarterfinals, but he recovered with a 5-1 decision over Brown's Trey Keeley in the wrestlebacks. Curry scored two takedowns including one late in the match, and moves on to the consolation round of 4 on Saturday.
• Top seeds Sal Profaci (141) and Kizhan Clarke (149) followed suit with first-round wins. Profaci had a 3-0 lead on Bucknell heading into the third period but it got exciting in the end before he won in a nail-biter, 6-4 with riding time.
• Clarke had no problem with Binghamton's Matt Swanson, getting takedown after takedown in a 10-2 major decision.
• The quarterfinals proved tougher for Clarke, who was tied 2-2 with Penn's Lucas Revano after two periods, but he prevailed 4-2 to advance to Saturday's semifinals.
• Profaci had a tough time in the quarterfinals, getting a couple points back in the third period but falling 8-6 to Binghamton's Anthony Sparacio. 
• In a heartbreaker, top seed Profaci battled to force overtime before losing 12-10 in sudden victory to Wil Gil of Franklin & Marshall. The loss knocked redshirt senior Profaci out of his first and only EIWA Championships.
• Tanner Harvey (184) used a six-point third period, including riding time, to advance to the quarterfinals over Navy's Andrew Buckley. After a 3-2 lead heading into the third, a big takedown propelled Harvey to a strong finish and a 9-2 win.
• The quarterfinals went even better for Harvey. He led 5-2 with a takedown in each of the first two periods, and exploded in the final seconds with a takedown and four back points for a 15-4 major decision to advance to the semifinals.
• After falling 5-2 in the opening round, Tim Fitzpatrick (165) battled back with a 3-1 decision over Jacob Nolan of Binghamton who he also beat earlier in the season. Fitzpatrick later assured himself a top eight finish with a 12-5 decision vs. Sacred Heart, finishing with a takedown and riding time.
• Wrestleback success also happened for Anthony Wokasch (174) and Niko Camacho (285). 
• Wokasch finished off his bout vs. Princeton's Kevin Parker with a takedown and a riding time point for an 8-5 decision. In the second consolation round, he beat Cornell's Brandon Womack, a 2017 All-American, also 8-5.
• Camacho had a 4-0 lead on Danny Conley of Columbia before scoring his fourth pin of the season in 3:32 to advance to the next round of wrestlebacks. In the very last match of the day, Camacho edged Drexel's Sean O'Malley 3-2 to advance to Saturday's rounds.
