MSU-NORTHERN WRESTLING

DAVID RAY’S WEEKLY UPDATE

12-15-03



Northern had an exciting home dual against the # ONE ranked Junior College team, Northwest College out of Powell, WY.  Northern won seven out of the 10 matches, actually nine matches, Northern forfeited at 125 pounds.  It was a great crowd with a lot of enthusiasm, somewhere around 500-600 fans.

 

After the forfeit at 125 lbs. Caleb Schaeffer started the ball rolling winning a tough match 14-9.  Weight classes 141 and 149 became two crucial matches of the night.  Chris Smith (141) won a stellar match against Eric Sabott (ranked #1) 5-4 in over-time and Anthony Haukenberry followed with a 4-1 decision over Luke Salazar (ranked #1).  Those matches set the tone for the dual and evening as Northern won the next two matches leading the dual 15-6.  Northern's David Waters lost at 174, 7-4 followed by the only pin of the dual from senior Kyle Fisher in 1:48.  Mazi Burke exceeded below team expectations after defeating the Northwest opponent 16-5 in November, he lost by a decision 7-3.  The match of the evening pitted Northern's 2X National Champ, 197 pounder Emmett Willson against the defending Heavyweight Junior College National Champion Tyler Rhodes.  Tyler fought Emmett gallantly by was not quick  or conditioned enough for the powerful Willson, Emmett won the match 10-4. 

 

Have a great Christmas.  Next up for the Lights is the Midlands Championships in Chicago on December 29-30.  Our next home meet will be January 24 against NCAA Division I Boise State, ranked 21st in the country.
