Salina South- 133 quarter finals
#7 Nick Nothern (Cornell) vs. Aljamain Sterling (Cortland State)

L-U-T-H-E-R!
The chant has been coming over the top of the media table all tournament, but the Norse fans had reason to celebrate as third-seeded Jason Pyle rallied from a 6-1 deficit to force overtime and eventually won 8-7 in the tie-breakers over sixth-seeded John Marsh of Bridgewater State. Pyle will face Valek in the semifinals.
