Delaware Valley University Athletics

Ryan Kelly compiled a 5-0 record and earned his first collegiate win at the RIT invitational on Saturday, giving him a top-three finish in all four of the Aggies' competitions this season. 

The 125 pound first-year started off the day with a 16-0 tech fall before earning back-to-back pins in his second and third bouts to advance to the semifinals. In the semis, Kelly picked up an 8-3 decision to punch his ticket to the finals. In the gold medal match, Kelly fell behind 2-0 early, but quickly flipped the script and held a 3-2 lead after one period. He would go on to win the 125 championship with a 5-2 decision. 

DelVal finished 3rd out of 16 teams on the day. They will head to Ursinus for a team dual on Saturday, December 11th at noon.
