P.J. Ladd (So.-Chilton, Wis.) won a good match at 165 pounds to lead the Lakeland University men's wrestling team in a 36-21 dual loss to Milwaukee School of Engineering Friday night at the Moose & Dona Woltzen Gymnasium.

Ladd recorded the lone win for the Muskies in one of just three matches contested as most weights went uncontested with forfeit winners. Ladd scored a 10-4 decision over Sam Rathburn on the strength of a trio of takedowns to build a 6-1 lead after two periods.

MSOE won the other two contested matches, both by fall. Jimmy Cushman defeated Coby Lynch (Fr.-Milwaukee, Wis.) in 1 minute, 27 seconds at 149 lbs., and Drew Matticks topped Kyle Reitmeier (Fr.-Armstrong, Ill.) in 2:55 at 174 lbs.

Lakeland is back in action again Saturday when it travels to the Don Parker Blugold Open in Eau Claire hosted by UW-Eau Claire.
