Winters dominated the 157-pound bracket by winning it with a 4-0 record with four pins and took the only two awards given to wrestlers at the NCAA Mideast Regionals last weekend at Elizabethtown, Pa.: Most Outstanding Wrestler and Most Falls in Least Amount of Time. Winters needed a combined 15:45 to pin all four opponents with an average pin time of just under four minutes per match on his way to punching a ticket to the NCAA Championship.

Winters pinned Perry Maio (The College of N.J.) in 3:39 in the opening round and then pinned Tyler Newton (University of Pttsburgh-Bradford) in 2:06 in the quarterfinals on Saturday. On Sunday, Winters pinned Muhlenberg’s Anson Dewar in the semifinals after 6:07 and then took the championship in 3:53 with a pin over The College of New Jersey’s Matthew Sacco.
