WILLIAMSPORT (PA) - Delaware Valley College continued its winning ways in the Middle Atlantic Conference as the third-ranked Aggies swept a trio of matches at the MAC North/South Duals (hosted by Lycoming College).

Delaware Valley opened with a 45-3 victory over King's College and followed with a 39-9 triumph over the University of Scranton. The Aggies then completed the day with a 44-3 rout of Wilkes University to improve their record to 13-3 overall (9-1 against Division III opponents) and a perfect 6-0 in the MAC.

Delaware Valley has now 21 consecutive conference dual meets dating back to the 2001-02 season. The Aggies have one more conference match this season and it's the biggest of them all as they will head-to-head with ninth-ranked and archrival Lycoming in Williamsport on Thursday, February 3 (7:30 p.m.).

Barry Wise, who is ranked second nationally at 133 pounds, made history on Saturday afternoon as the senior became just the eighth wrestler in school history to surpass the 100-win plateau with the Aggies. The two-time All-American entered the day with 98 career victories and began by pinning John Houssock of King's in 65 seconds. The milestone victory was a forfeit by Scranton, but Wise followed in style with win number 101 as he dropped Joe Yutko of Wilkes with 10 seconds remaining in the first period (2:50).

Fellow nationally-ranked wrestlers Mike Weston (125), Jason Shivak (174) and Andrew Helms (184) also went 3-0 at the Duals. Weston, ranked sixth in his weight class, improved to 14-3 with a pin, major decision and decision.

Shivak, ranked seventh nationally, moved closer to the 100-win plateau as well with a pin, technical fall and a decision. That upped his season record to 15-5 and his career victory total to 99.

Helms, who is ranked fifth in his weight class, went over the 100-win plateau for his career (102) with 84 coming as an Aggie after he transferred in from Wilkes three years ago. He was awarded a forfeit in his first match and followed with a pin and a decision to up his season record to 24-4.
