Coming off a second place finish at the Super 8 Invitational, Triplett left little doubt as to his purpose this season in Duhawks' home-opening dual against No. 9 UW-Platteville. Against No. 7 Scott Arneson, Triplett secured six team points with his first fall of the year, coming at 2:55. Prior to the fall, Triplett held a 6-0 lead after a takedown and four-point near fall. His victory moved him to No. 7 in both the latest NWCA and d3wrestle.com Poll. Triplett and the rest of the wrestling program heads to Mequon, Wis. this weekend for the Concordia Wisconsin Open.
