Ranked No. 4 at 174 pounds in NCAA Division II Super Region One, Matthews helped the Gannon wrestling team split a pair of road dual meets last weekend by going 2-0 against regionally-ranked opponents. The redshirt sophomore began a road trip with a 5-2 victory against fifth-ranked Joe Welk during a 22-20 dual victory at East Stroudsburg. He produced the second of four straight wins to end the match as Gannon rallied from a 20-6 deficit. Matthews ended the weekend with a 9-5 victory against sixth-ranked Joseph Balboni during a dual meet at Kutztown. He led Balboni 7-2, before settling for a 9-5 win. The verdict gave Gannon a 6-0 team lead at the time. Matthews improved to 11-8 overall and 2-0 in dual competition this season. Four of his losses have come against NCAA Division I opponents.
