The pair of victories improves the Lumberjacks to a perfect 5–0 on the year.

Leading the charge once again was Darrell Nanpuya, who notched one of the highlight moments of the dual with a decisive pin that electrified the Humboldt bench and sealed the upset. His back-to-back victories anchored a Humboldt squad firing on all cylinders.
