Dhesi Third - Bresser 7th!

Oregon State Wrestling Fans,

Amar's 3rd place fall - by Jana Iwasaki

Amar Dhesi just put an exclamation point on his run at the NCAA's with a first period fall over #4 seed Jacob kasper of Duke in the third place match at heavyweight. Amar was leading the match 4-1 at the time of the fall. Congratulations, Amar! Third Place - All-American!

A little earlier in the day Ronnie Bresser finished up his run through the NCAA brackets as well. All he had to do was show up to claim his victory - a  medical forfeit over Zeke Moisey of UVU. Ronnie picks up the 7th place medal for All-American! Congratulations, Ronnie!

That makes Amar's second All-American title and Ronnie's first. Amar also had two falls during the tournament. Way to go, guys!!

Team scores will still change tonight with the finals round, starting at 5:00 pm (Pacific) on ESPN. Oregon State looks like they will hold on to 21st place with 26 points. No one below them can pass them. If some of the ties above are broken that might affect the placement, not sure how that works. To see the updated brackets and team scores - check the FloWrestling  site. You can also find brackets and scores at TrackWrestling.
