Beavs Corral Mustangs 26-10! Feb. 7, 2015

Beaver fans got their money's worth of entertainment tonight as the Beavs battled to victory in 7 of the 10 matches with the Cal Poly Mustangs.

But first, before the start of wrestling, it was Senior Night, and the seniors were called out on the mat, accompanied by their families. Seniors Alex Elder, Brian Engdahl, Joe Latham, Taylor Meeks, Kurtis Ramsay, Pat Rollins and Nick Schlager were all honored for their years of contribution to the Oregon State Wrestling program.

125 - Ronnie Bresser III winner by tech fall! in the third period

133 - Jack Hathaway winner by decision (an escape and riding time)

141 - Devin Reynolds kept battling to the end, but couldn't get the win

149 - Abraham Rodriguez winner by decision, turned up the heat in the third period and almost won by major

157 - Alex Elder winner by major, it was all Alex, all the way

165 - Seth Thomas seemed to have this one in hand, and it slipped away in the last seconds

174 - Joe Latham's match was tied at the end of both 1st & 2nd periods, then at the end of the 3rd, there was a mad scramble. Joe seemed to have turned the tide with a reversal, but the Cal Poly coach protested and there was all sorts of confusion. Result - a tie was declared and OT ensued, with Cal Poly coming out on top.

184 - Taylor Meeks got caught in an early takedown, but then it was all Taylor, winning by major and loads of riding time

197 - Cody Crawford, winner by major decision, keeping the crowd going with lots of action

Hwt - Nate Keeve, facing another much larger opponent (his normal situation this year, it seems), winner by decision in Over Time!

Final score, OSU 26 CP 10. Way to go, Beavers!!

For more information, see the Oregon State article.

The Beavers return to the mat at 8 pm tomorrow for their final home meet vs Boise State in the Border battle. This one will be televised on the Pac-12 network, but we need every available fan in the stands to help cheer the Beavers. Let's help them keep their home winning streak going!

Due to the late start time, we will not be having a Social following the meet. We will do something instead during the Pac-12's on March 1. More information on that later.
