What a weekend it was for OS Wrestling! The varsity squad had two dominating victories, one over Simon Fraser, the other over cross border rival, Boise! The Border Axe was carried victoriously across the mat by team captain, Clayton Jack. Definitely worth the price of admission! (By the way, check that axe out if you get a chance. It's actually made of solid wood.)
For recaps of both meets, see the OS web site:

For those who like photos, the on-line version has a photo of Clayton Jack in his match. The newspaper also had photos of Pat Rollins celebrating his victory and Mike Mangrum wrestling.
The GT also carried a story on the Simon Fraser meet:

Thanks to all that turned out this past weekend for our home opening weekend of OSU wrestling. It was a good weekend overall, with wins over Simon Fraser and Boise State. The Boise State meet ended with a 32-10 win for the good guys, OSU. Getting big wins for the Beavs against the Broncos were freshman Pat Rollins (125), James Roberts (133) and Taylor Meeks (197), all recording pins. Scott Sakaguchi and Michael Mangrum recorded major decisions and Clayton Jack controlled his match in a rematch from last years’ Pac- 10 finals. Ty Vinson found a way to pull out a close match at 174 lbs.
It is a short week as we prepare for a very good Missouri team on Friday night at 7 PM. Missouri is a team that will bring in several nationally ranked wrestlers and it should be a good meet. Anyone wanting to get some of Thanksgiving dinner out of you, come down to Gill and scream and holler for The Beavs. It is also The Legacy Meet, with all ticket sales going toward the Wrestling Endowment Fund here at OSU. We would like to see a crowd about 2x the size of this on Friday night. Bring a few friends along, we will hook them into regulars.
Special congrats to OSU great Greg Strobel on the announcement that he will be inducted this spring into The National Wrestling Hall of Fame! The Scappoose, Oregon native had a stellar career here at OSU, winning a pair of NCAA Championships, before going onto a great post collegiate career in coaching with Lehigh University and USA Wrestling among other honors.
Another Oregonian, Fred Fozzard- the 1969 World Freestyle Champion will also be inducted. What a great year for the state of Oregon and another example of the rich wrestling tradition and history in our great state.
This past weekend, we also had several wrestlers compete in the Spokane Open. Champions included Garrett Drucker at 133, Alex Elder at 157, and freshman Seth Thomas at 165 (who pinned his way through the tournament). That is now two tournament championships for Seth on consecutive weekends. Anthony Harris (141) finished 2nd, and freshman Drew VanAnrooy made his college debut with a 3rd place finish at 141 bs. Brian Engdahl (184) finished 4th, and Nick Schlagger (149) was 5th.
The Cliff Keen Invitational in Las Vegas the following week. The tournament will include many of the nation’s top teams and individuals, so we can get some great competition and see where we stack up at this point of the season.
This Saturday, November 26th- OSU and the OWA will host the second annual MAKE A DIFFERENCE TOURNAMENT for kids wrestlers of all ages, here on campus in the Truax Center. Last year, there were about 900 wrestlers and it promises to be a great pre-season competition once again. It is only $15 to compete, go to www.wrestlingnorthwest.com and look under “events” page. Weigh-ins are both Friday night from 5-6 and Saturday morning. All wrestlers that weigh-in on Friday evening will receive a ticket to that evening’s match vs. Missouri at 7 PM!
Don’t forget to sign up for the Fall Club, the official Fan club for OSU wrestling. Benefits include complimentary admission to all post-meet socials and other opportunities. As mentioned at last weekends’ social, we will have a fan bus traveling to Boise for the Pac 12 Championships. It will be a lot of fun for those involved.
If you are interested in NCAA tickets this year, make sure to consider going through our ticket office and sitting in the OSU section! Call 1-800- GoBeavs before they are sold out. We would love to have you in our section. knows that it helps! Please make an effort to get to Gill this weekend, The Beavs will wrestle aggressively and want your support!.
