Crowing two EIWA champions last season, Head Coach Jason Borrelli continues to build the program in our nation's capital. Heading into 2026-2027, he says goodbye to some gifted talents.
It was truly a shame that Max Leete & Ray Lopez were at the same weight class. Even more of a shame that both were seniors this past year. Max Leete, a two-time NCAA DI qualifier, finished off his career as an EIWA champion & one match shy of being a DI All-American. 75 career wins. Lopez, a testimony to just how tough it is to even crack a lineup at this level. Won the Navy Classic & finished 7th at the Southern Scuffle. Stuck both Brett Ungar & Jacob Van Dee.
As to Jack Maida? The truth about the 2023 NCAA DI qualifier is that had it not been for injuries, I'd be writing down a whole list of his other credentials & accomplishments. As tough as this sport is & as much as it demands out of you, it'd be nice if those demons we refer to as injuries would just leave our athletes alone. Unfortunately, that isn't the case.
| 125 J.J. Peace |
7th in the EIWA a year ago, J.J. Peace came up a bit short of NCAA DI qualification, but should among the 33 in 2027. 25 wins on the year, he was 7th in the Southern Scuffle.
| 184 Caleb Campos |
I'm really hoping that when we see our first appearance of Coach Borrelli this season that he has his hair like this. The Eagles first top 8 All-American since 2016, Caleb Campos placed 4th in the DI nation a year ago. An EIWA champion, he was the Southern Scuffle runner-up & 3rd at the Navy Classic. 31 wins on the year.
