BUFFALO, N.Y. – The fifth-ranked Badger wrestling team competed in "Mayhem on the Mainstage" at Buffalo on Thursday night and came away with a dominate win to remain undefeated on the season. Wisconsin (4-0) won the battle against the Bulls 33-3.

In the 157-pound bout, Garrett Model put the team on his back and stole a technical fall from Buffalo's (0-1) Hunter Shaut. Model, a Stoughton native, scored 19 points in his match and snagged his second win of the season.

At 165 pounds, No. 3 Evan Wick also faced a ranked opponent in No. 21 Troy Keller. Wick played defense and didn't give up a single point to the Buffalo wrestler. The redshirt junior took a major decision with a final 8-0 score.

Three ranked Badgers -- No. 11 Tristan Moran, No. 13 Cole Martin and No. 7 Trent Hillger -- recorded major decisions over their opponents.
