Jesuit's Luke Battaglia came away the best out of that group as he won his first consolation round match 8-7 against a Nebraska opponent.
Houser, who competes for St. Paul's, lost his only match of the day 10 to J. Volk of Minnesota and, due to the smaller size of the 88 lbs. bracket, will not wrestle his first consolation match until Sunday. Volk advanced to Sunday's quarterfinals.
