The 11th-ranked Pitt-Johnstown wrestlers won eight of the 10 bouts, including falls from No. 2 Jacob Ealy, Dillon Keane (165 lbs.), and No. 3 Isaiah Vance (285 lbs.), to deal ninth-ranked UNC Pembroke a 38-8 setback in Saturday's second round of the Mountain Cat Duals in the Sports Center.  The win put Pitt-Johnstown at 7-2.
 
Pitt-Johnstown got off to a quick start with a 16-0 technical fall at 2:20 from No. 12 Trevon Gray over Joey Bruscino at 125 lbs., and Byron Daubert's 7-5 win over Logan Robinson at 133 lbs.
 
UNC Pembroke got a reversal as time expired in the third period from Avery Buonocore to secure an 11-10 win over Mason Myers at 141 lbs., but at 149 lbs., Ealy took just 20 second to pin Joshua Feliz to push the Mountain Cats' lead out to 14-3.
 
Cooper Warshel dealt Michael Lowery at 17-4 major decision loss at 157 lbs., and Keane pinned William Lowery at 4:44 at 165 lbs. to increase it to 24-3.
 
A 17-2 technical fall win from second-ranked Scott Joll at 174 lbs. cut the Braves' deficit to 24-8, but Noah Gnibus used a riding time point to hold off Christopher Dickey, 2-1, at 184 lbs. and seventh-ranked Dakoda Rodgers dealt Garrett Steele a 2-0 loss at 197 lbs.
 
Vance then wrapped-it up the Pitt-Johnstown victory by pinning Massimo Sullivan a 1:53 at 285 lbs.
