ARDSLEY, N.Y. – Springfield College Senior Derrick Longo was right where he wanted to be, wrestling for the 165-pound title in the Doug Parker Wrestling Invitational at Springfield College Saturday.

Longo began with a 13-2 major decision over Robert Sotelo of Rhode Island College. In the second round, Longo registered a 21-5 technical fall over Zach Bantle from Western New England.

Longo advanced to the semifinals with a hard-fought 2-1 win over James Matlack of Plymouth State. Longo decisioned Ryan Madson of the Massachusetts Institute of Technolgy, 7-5, in a semifinal.
