Sikora started the day off against top-seeded Garrett South of Luther College. Sikora dropped a 7-3 decision to fall into the consolation bracket. Sikora lost his next match to Ursinus' Scott Roesch 12-8 to move onto the fifth place match. Sikora reversed two earlier season losses to UW-La Crosse's Nick Ammerman in the fifth place match. Sikora defeated the second-seeded Ammerman 4-0 to take home fifth place and finish the season 30-6. Sikora becomes only the fourth Blugold to become a two-time All-American with his fifth place finish.
