Breakdown
- The 5-2 decision in sudden victory over Tracye Eckman is the team-high third ranked win for Uhorchuk. Eckman was 20th in the most recent NCAA RPI. Uhorchuk is 33rd in the RPI and on Intermat.
- Trailing 1-0 heading into the third, Uhorchuk earned a reversal to make it 2-1 before Eckman tied it with an escape to send it into the extra period.
- Uhorchuk is a true freshman from Signal Mountain just outside Chattanooga, Tenn.
- He was originally planning to redshirt this campaign but when an injury to Bryce Luna opened the door, he chose to forego that plan. His 6-1 SoCon dual record is indicative of his impact in the title chase.
- He is 14-7 on the season, 6-1 in duals. All dual starts are in SoCon competition.
- It is the fourth time the Mocs have had five or more WOTW honors: 6-2005-06 & 2013-14; 5-2004-05 & 2025-26.
- Just the second time (2004-05) with five different winners.
