| January 17, 2026 1:10 AM

OREGON CITY, Ore. — Seth Martin, a freshman from Post Falls High, won by major decision at 184 pounds to trim North Idaho College’s deficit to eight points, but the Clackamas Cougars, ranked fourth in the NJCAA, notched a win at 197 pounds to clinch a 24-19 dual victory against the sixth-ranked Cardinals on Friday night at Clackamas Community College. 

NIC trailed 21-3, then got a pin from Dylan Block at 174 to make it 21-9 before Martin’s win gave the Cardinals another four points. Sophomore Ray Griffin closed out the dual with a pin at 285 for NIC, which beat Clackamas 28-21 on Nov. 21 at Christianson Gymnasium. The schools also faced off at the NJCAA Coaches Duals last Saturday in Miami, Okla., with the Cougars beating the Cardinals 28-9.
