AUBURN HILLS, Mich — Four Cornell wrestlers were honored on collegiate wrestling’s biggest stage yesterday. Taking part in the night session’s parade of All-Americans, senior Jerry Rinaldi, sophomore Troy Nickerson, sophomore Jordan Leen and sophomore Josh Arnone all were recognized for their accomplishments at this season’s NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships held inside the Palace of Auburn Hills just outside Detroit. After three days of non-stop wrestling, Nickerson finished third in the country at 125 pounds, Rinaldi finished sixth at 197, while Leen and Arnone finished eighth at 149 and 184 pounds, respectively. Although the team finished in a disappointing 12th place overall, there were still positives to take away from this year’s event.
