Saint John's University senior wrestler Minga Batsukh (Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia/St. Benedict's Prep, N.J.) ran his record to 7-0 on the season with three more wins as the No. 5 Johnnies upset both No. 1 Wartburg (Iowa) and No. 3 Coe (Iowa) to go 3-1 at the Vegas Duals Monday, Dec. 20. The bump up to 149 pounds from 141, a weight class in which he has won each of the last two national championships, seems to be a smooth transition thus far. Of his seven victories, Batsukh boasts three pins, one technical fall, two major decisions and just one straight decision.

SJU returns to action Jan. 8-9 at the prestigious NWCA/Cliff Keen Division III National Duals on the campus of Northern Iowa in Cedar Falls, Iowa.
