LaBrie followed with a 20-13 win over Adam Santoro at 165 pounds, bringing Brown within 16-6 in the team score. Trailing 11-2 at the end of the first period, LaBrie scored a pair of 4-point near falls to cut his deficit to 11-10 heading to the third period. He registered an escape, takedown, reversal, and 4-point near fall on his way to the win.
