CEDAR FALLS, Iowa - The University of Northern Iowa wrestling squad won its fourth match in its last five tries with a 42-3 dual win over South Dakota State in a Western Wrestling Conference dual Sunday in the McLeod Center.
UNI (5-5-1 overall, 3-0 WWC) won nine of the 10 matches, including bonus points in six of the bouts. SDSU fell to 1-8 overall and 0-5 in WWC matches.
The Jackrabbits won the first match of the day at 184 pounds when Tyler Sorenson scored a narrow 7-6 victory over UNI's Andy O'Loughlin. Sorenson used an escape, a stalling point and a riding time point in the third period to take the one-point victory. O'Loughlin scored a takedown with nine seconds left in the match to tie it at 6-6, but Sorenson used the riding time advantage to score the win.
UNI's Andrew Anderson (197 lbs.) and Dustin Bauman's 15-0 technical fall at heavyweight over SDSU's Jeremy Swier.
Josh Baldridge notched a 9-1 major decision over the Jacks' Nick Kulseth at 133 pounds to put UNI on top 21-3 in the dual.
UNI's C.J. Ettelson then scored a 5-0 win over SDSU's Jeff Cooley at 141 pounds.
Charlie Ettelson then notched a fall at the 4:46 mark of his 149-pound match with SDSU's Marc Wermerson. Ettelson was up 10-3 at the time of the fall.
The Panthers then used the next two weights to get some experience for a pair of wrestlers in 157-pounder Trevor Kittleson and 165-pounder Jarion Beets.
Kittleson won his first-ever collegiate dual match with a hard fought 2-0 decision over SDSU's Weston Blasius. Kittleson scored an escape in the third period and then tacked on a riding time point after he had ridden out Blasius in the second period.
Beets, who jumped up a weight class to 165 pounds, secured a 3-2 win over national qualifier Ryan Meyer. Beets used a first-period takedown and a second-period escape to tally the winning points.
Senior Alex Dolly closed out the dual with a third-period fall over SDSU's Justin Retallic at the 5:24 mark of their 174-pound bout. Dolly tallied six takedowns in the match before he got Retallic in a fall situation in the final period.
UNI will travel to Omaha, Neb., to take on the Nebraska-Omaha Mavericks on Feb. 21 at 7 p.m., before closing out the dual season Feb. 24 at home against North Dakota State.
