NEW YORK—All three of the remaining CSU Bakersfield wrestlers were eliminated on day two of the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships at Madison Square Garden Friday.

Bryce Hammond need only 2:23 to record a technical fall over Michael Pavasko of Clarion in his first wrestle back Friday. He took on Alex Meyer of Iowa in round three of the consolation bracket. Hammond built a four-point lead before a Meyer reversal led to a four-point near fall for the Hawkeye grappler at the end of the opening period.

A second two-point Meyer reversal pushed the lead to 8-4 early in the second period. Meyer took down Hammond from the neutral position to begin the third period.  Meyer again recorded a four-point near fall and with riding time, Meyer eliminated Hammond from the tournament 15-4. Hammond finished his season with 21-5 record.

Ian Nickell eliminated from the 141-pound bracket when Penn State's Jimmy Gulibon defeated Nickell 4-3 in the second round of wrestlebacks. Nickell concluded his season with a 27-11 record.
