The Jamestown Jimmies Men's Wrestling team got off to a strong start with wins by Isaac Ronquillo and Elijah Nose, but couldn't hold on as Concordia Moorhead rallied to win the non-conference dual 32-9 on Thursday at Memorial Auditorium.

Why it matters

The loss drops the Jimmies to 1-9 on the season, as they continue to search for consistency and momentum heading into the final stretch of the year. Concordia Moorhead, on the other hand, showed its depth by winning seven straight contested matches after falling behind early.

The details

Ronquillo pinned Concordia's Hunter Mars at 125 pounds to give the Jimmies an early 6-0 lead. Nose then won by sudden victory at 133 pounds to extend the Jimmies' advantage to 9-0. But the Cobbers didn't lose again, taking the next seven contested matches, including a technical fall and a decision win, before earning a forfeit victory at heavyweight to seal the 32-9 triumph.

  • The dual took place on Thursday, February 13, 2026 at Memorial Auditorium in Moorhead, Minnesota.
  • The Jimmies will wrestle in an NSIC dual against Northern State on Friday in Aberdeen, South Dakota.
