Oregon State Wrestling Fans,
Whatever Coach Zalesky
has had the guys doing in the practice room lately, it paid off. At the
Social after the meet, Zalesky said that it's easier to get in a good
practice at home than on the road. He added that their practices lately
have been improving. It certainly looked that way on the mat in Gill Coliseum this afternoon! The 604 fans who turned out on a lovely spring-like January day were treated to some great action as the Beavers beat the Bears 34-10. The Beavers won 8 of the 10 matches.
Match winners:
Congratulations to all the match winners!
Rodney Williams represented the Beavers at 165 and Bob Coleman took the 184 spot, but neither were able to bring in a win.
Wrestlers, coaches and families and fans gathered at the Social in Reser after the meet. All enjoyed pizza, chicken wings, veggies and cookies. FALL club President Reynold Gardner brought up Devan Turner and Josh Reyes for an interview. Devan's favorite wrestling memory was his win tonight over a ranked D-1 wrestler! Josh's favorite wrestling memory was winning a National Championship for Clackamas Community College last year!
During the meet intermission for the television schedule, several contests were held with fans. One was identifying songs. The fan's answers were then compared to a video on the big screen of Devan Turner guessing the same songs. Not only did Devan get all three correct, but he's a pretty good singer! Good job, Devan!
For fun, if you want to see the flash of Ronnie Bresser's finale to his match or Jack Hathaway's pin, check the Twitter feed for Oregon State Wrestling. Scroll down through the comments until you come to the videos.

As I mentioned earlier in the week, the California Collegiate Open tournament was held yesterday. A group of Beavers participated. Aaron Olmos was a champion at 165, Connor Noonan was 3rd at 149 and Drake McKee was 3rd at 165. Congratulations! Adam Rateb and Christian Robertson also wrestled, but did not place.
Worth mentioning - Connor Noonan continues his dominating ways. He won 4 of his 6 matches by fall!

Last, but not least, for those of you who like poetry, I recently
uncovered a poem handed to me earlier in the year. Pam Wilson, a long
time FALL Club member wrote a poem during the Intrasquad meet this fall.
The poem was inspired by actual events at the Intrasquad. You can find
the poem posted on "The FALL's blog. Enjoy!
If today's meet left you wanting more wrestling, you don't have to wait long. The next home meet is next Saturday, Feb. 3, at 7:30 when the Beavers host Pac-12 opponent Cal Poly.
The final home meet will be Feb 5, vs Fresno, when former Beaver Assistant Coach Troy Steiner brings his Fresno Bulldogs to town.
More on that later.
Go Beavs!
