On Saturday, March 2, 2024, the Millersville University Wrestling Team traveled to Kutztown University located in Kutztown, Pennsylvania for the NCAA Super Region I Championships. The Super Region Championships are divided among six teams, and all are Division II schools which are determined by the geographic location of their respective schools. At the end of the highly competitive event, Millersville came in 5th place out of ten; totaling 100 points. Five of the wrestlers from Millersville qualified for the 2024 Division II Wrestling Championships, a 2-day event that took place on April 19th and 20th, 2024, in Wichita, Kansas.
Each wrestler that participates in this championship event must compete in a minimum of two, three-minute matches, regardless of winning or not. One of Millersville’s wrestlers, Devin Flannery remained unbeaten during the championship with a 4-0 performance in his weight class (133). Other Millersville’s wrestlers: Craig Cook (149), Brandon Connor (165), Jonathan Parilla (174), and Anthony Giampetro (184) all were awarded third place and thus qualified for the NCAA Division II Wrestling Championships.
Currently, Flannery has been to the Super Region Championships three times. This year, he placed first in his weight class. Last year (2023), he was designated as the runner-up. The previous year before that, he placed 3rd.
