Mills went 5-0 in the 165-pound bracket, winning his first two matches by fall and the next three by decision, including a 10-8 victory over Vincent Renaut of U.S. Merchant Marine Academy in the finals. Mills is now 9-2 on the season.
Oswego State heavyweight Jake Taylor finished second in his bracket, suffering his first loss of the season in the finals against Glenn Geesman of MIT by 7-4 score. Taylor won his first three matches in the tournament by pinfall, and is 9-1 this season with all of his wins coming by pin.
The Lakers also had two sixth-place finishers at the tournament, James Weber at 149 pounds and Chris Payne at 141 pounds.
Oswego State's team point total of 81.5 was good for an eighth-place standing. Rhode Island College won the tournament with 142.5 points, followed by U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (113), and Centenary (111.5).

I'm a sports reporter who most recently covered Syracuse University football for Clear Channel Syracuse (620 WHEN & 570 WSYR).
I attended SUNY Oswego where I majored in Broadcasting-
Mass Communications. I was also the Voice of the Lakers (VOTL) from 2007-2009 on 88.9 FM WNYO Oswego. It was during this time that I created this blog, then known as the WNYO Sports Blog. Upon leaving Oswego, I took the blog with me. I am a supporter of SU & Oswego State Athletics, as well as the New York Yankees, NY Giants, and NY Rangers. The VOTL.com is also simulcast on Bleacher Report.
