HOBOKEN, N.J.– The Stevens Institute of Technology wrestling team picked up four wins by technical fall including three in the evening's final four matches for a commanding 38-8 victory over Hudson County foe NJCU Thursday evening on Senior night.
 
Prior to the dual, the team's Class of 2026 -- Katrina Kling, Naci Robinson, Vincent Principe, Anthony Bistany, Justin Ciliotta, Nico Diaz, and Ryan Smith – were all recognized for their contributions to the program during their individual and collective time in Hoboken.
