Almost All Beavers! 40-6! - Jan.23, 2015

The Beavers were on a roll tonight, crushing their Northern Colorado Bear opponents in turn as they came out onto the mat, until the last two matches. even those two were hanging in the balance until the final seconds. Final score, Beavers 40, Bears 6.

Ronnie Bresser III set the fire and the tone stepping out first at 125. He finished with a 15-6 major decision. If you weren't paying attention, you missed 133, as Jack Hathaway put his opponent away by fall in the first period!

At 141, Devin Reynolds gave up the first points, but worked his way back into the lead and closed the deal with a 2nd period fall of his own. Abraham Rodriguez took control of his 149 match early, almost reaching the tech fall score, but had to settle for a 20-7 victory, a major. In the last match before intermission, Alex Elder won 157 by a tech fall in the 2nd period by racking up lots of back points en route to his 17-0 win.

Seth Thomas started off the second half by winning an exciting match at 165. He upset a ranked wrestler by coming from behind (it was 1-6 at one point) to get ahead and then put it away by a 3rd period fall. Way to go, Seth! 174 next, Joe Latham amassed 4.5 minutes of Riding Time along with his 12-2 Major decision.

At 184, Taylor Meeks didn't keep his opponent on the mat very long, finishing the match by tech fall in the second period, 20-2.
At 197, Cody Crawford had a narrow lead in a low scoring match only to see it slip away in the final seconds, losing 2-3. Nate Keeve had the Hwt score tied 1-1 with an escape apiece, only to give up a takedown at the end, followed with an escape and not quite enough time to reverse the final score.

Final Score: 40-6, Beavers! Nice work , gentlemen!!
