• With the Bearcats trailing 12-9, Baer was able to pick up two extra points for Binghamton after he defeated Eric Shindel in a 21-5 technical fall. The technical fall, which was Baer's third of the season, gave the Bearcats a 14-12 lead.
• After Hofstra retook the lead 17-14 with a 21-5 technical fall of its own in the 165 lb., match, Squires stepped up for the Bearcats in the 197 lb., bout against Will Conlon. Trailing 4-0 entering the third period, Squires recorded an escape and a takedown to tie the match at 4.
