BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Army West Point Wrestling was looking to get back into the win column Saturday, but couldn't carry momentum from its opening-bout win and took a 27-10 loss at the Lehigh Mountain Hawks.

Army moves to 6-3 overall and 3-2 vs. EIWA opponents.

The Black Knights won the coin toss and opted to start the dual at 174 lbs. Dalton Harkins then won by decision to move to 17-6 on the season.

With three of the next four bouts decided by three points or fewer, it was Ethan Berginc at 133 lbs who had his arm raised next for the Black Knights, holding off a late attempted escape from Lehigh's Matty Lopes and riding out the final period for a decisive riding time point in a 2-1 win.

With that win, Berginc became the fourth Black Knight this season to reach the 20-win mark.

Gunner Filipowicz won by major decision in the final bout at 165 lbs, moving to a team-best 21-3 overall record and 7-2 in duals. The sophomore also logged his seventh major decision and 18^th bonus point win, both team leads.

Six of the 10 matches overall were decided by three or fewer points.
