Back in the fall, Chris Ayres and his coaching staff established the mantra of “In the Hunt” for the 2014-15 wrestling season. Ayres’s grapplers lived up to that standard over the course of the season. After qualifying just one wrestler for NCAA Championships in 2014, the Tigers tied a program record by sending five individuals — half of the starting lineup — to this year’s championships in St. Louis, Mo. All five wrestlers — junior 197-pounder Abram Ayala, junior 149-pounder Chris Perez, sophomore 184-pounder Brett Harner, sophomore 141-pounder Jordan Laster and freshman 165-pounder Jonathan Schleifer — advanced to the second day of double-elimination competition.

After falling to Dartmouth in its Ivy League opener back in October, it would have taken some creativity to imagine the men’s soccer team ending up sharing the league title with the Big Green. But that’s exactly what happened on Saturday, as the Tigers (11-3-3 overall, 5-1-1 Ivy League) took down Yale (1-13-3, 0-6-1) in New Haven to clinch at least a share of the Ivy League title. After a scoreless first half, senior forward Cameron Porter picked up the rebound on his own initial shot and put it away in the 58th minute. Porter nearly struck again in the next minute, when another attempt hit the crossbar. But the minutes seemed like hours as the clock crawled to the 90th minute mark, as Yale had the majority of scoring opportunities over the last 20 minutes of play. But a save by junior goalkeeper Ben Hummel in the 88th minute would be the last chance the Bulldogs had on net, as the Tigers held on to extend their unbeaten streak to nine games.
