Cowboy Wrestling Loses To Top-Ranked Iowa, 20-13
January 18, 2009 | Cowboy Wrestling
STILLWATER, Okla. – The No. 13 Oklahoma State wrestling team lost to No. 1 Iowa, 20-13 Sunday at Gallagher-Iba Arena.
Individual winners for the Cowboys included 125-pounder Obenson Blanc (5-2 victory over J.J. Krutsinger), 157-pounder Neil Erisman (4-1 win over Matt Ballweg), 197-pounder Clayton Foster (9-1 major decision win over Brodie Ambrose) and heavyweight Jared Rosholt (9-5 win over No. 12 Dan Erekson).
The dual featured several close matches, including the 165- and 174-pound matches, but the swing matches ended in favor of the Hawkeyes.
"It was just real conservative on our part. You're not going to upset the number one team being conservative," Coach John Smith said. "I thought we were conservative at 133 and 141; they came down to one takedown. You're not going to win being conservative."
Oklahoma State returns to action on January 25, when the Cowboys travel to face No. 3 Iowa State at 1:00 p.m. in Ames, Iowa, then hop on the bus to Cedar Falls to battle No. 22 Northern Iowa at 7:00 p.m. that same night.
