The No. 23 Lindenwood wrestling team defeated Fort Hays State on Sunday by a 23-16 margin on Senior Day in Hyland Arena in St. Charles, Mo.
 
The Lions celebrated two seniors, Hunter Haralson and Jake Borgmeyer as both wrestlers earned a victory in their final home match of their careers.  No. 8 Haralson shut out his opponent 8-0 while No. 12 Borgmeyer tallied a 9-3 win to seal the victory for the Lions.
 
No. 4 Carlos Jacquez notched a 13-3 major decision in the 125-pound match and Nate Trepanier had the most electric finish of the day in the 149-pound bout.  Trepanier was fighting from behind late in the match before flipping his opponent to his back to score a pin at the 5:50 mark.
