Palmer & Griego - Pac-12 Champs!!

Oregon State Wrestling Fans,

Wrestling is over at the Pac-12 Tournament. As the dust settles, two Beavers emerge as Champions - Joey Palmer at 133 and Corey Griego at 197. Congratulations!!

There was no six-peat, however. The Beavers dropped to fourth place behind leaders ASU, Stanford and CSU Bakersfield.

Team standings:
ASU - 125.0
Stanford - 119.5
CSUB - 92
OSU - 91.5
Cal Poly - 78
Boise State -75

In the final championship match of the evening, Cody Crawford took the action to the second Sudden Victory round before being taken down by ASU's Tanner Hall, so Oregon State did come close to having three champions.

Jack Hathaway took second at 141 along with Cody Crawford's second at 285. Joey Delgado placed third at 149. Rodney Williams and Bob Coleman placed fifth at 165 and 174 respectively. Kegan Calkins, Abraham Rodriquez and Seth McLeod ended up 6th at 125, 157 and 184.

So far, the brackets have not been finalized. You can find brackets and team scores at Floarena. You do need to use the tabs and drop down menus to find all the information. If the regular brackets do get a final update, it should be on the Stanford page.


More details are available at osubeavers.com.

Thoughts now turn to the NCAA Championships coming up March 16-18 in St Louis. According to the allotments, 5 Beavers should have their tickets punched already: Palmer, Hathaway, Delgado, Griego and Crawford. Anyone else would have to receive a wild card.

Congratulations again to the Pac-12 Champs - Joey Palmer and Corey Griego, and the other placers!

Go Beavs!
