Ryan Sheldon

Ryan Sheldon’s first dual win this season was not ordinary.

The Coe sophomore knocked off highly-ranked foe to do it, and achieved it in dramatic fashion.

Sheldon, a former Cedar Rapids Kennedy prep, scored a takedown in the final seconds to score a 3-1 win over University of Dubuque’s ninth-rated Logan Einerson on Saturday. The fourth-ranked Kohawks beat the No. 18 Spartans, 27-12, at Eby Fieldhouse in Cedar Rapids.

Einerson was a 2012 NCAA qualifier for Dubuque.

Sheldon improved to 9-7 this season with three pins and a major decision. His career mark is 33-12, including nine pins.
