Orange Claims 21-12 Win Over Black In OSU Wrestling Ranking Matches
Fuentes, Griffin, Shelton pick up key wins. Cowboys open season this Sunday at Central Missouri Open.

Stillwater, Okla. - The Oklahoma State wrestling team hit the mat for its annual Orange and Black dual tonight, with the Orange team coming out on top, 21-12. The dual featured several key matches that will help head coach John Smith continue to fill his starting lineup for the season opening dual against Oklahoma on December 2.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Freshman Ben Ashmore opened things up for the Cowboys in style, earning a fall over Chad Ravannack in 1:35 to give the Orange squad a quick 6-0 lead. Senior and top-ranked Coleman Scott got all he could handle from last yearâ€™s 125-pound starter Tyler Shinn, squeaking out a 4-3 victory. Senior All-American Nathan Morgan also was pushed in a 6-3 decision over true freshman Luke Ashmore.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â â€œI donâ€™t think Iâ€™ve ever walked away from a ranking match pleased,â€ Smith said. â€œIt didnâ€™t seem like anyone had a real attitude of domination. Weâ€™ll take several things from these matches and we should improve.â€
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Freshman Quinten Fuentes earned a come-from-behind 12-6 victory over true freshman Luke Silver in a key 149-pound match.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â â€œIt was good. I wish I wrestled better in the first period, but Silver is strong and heâ€™s pretty tough for a true freshman,â€ Fuentes said. â€œHe caught me off guard and took me down twice. Iâ€™ve wrestled him in the summer, but that was freestyle. Weâ€™ve actually never wrestled each other in the room.â€
Incumbent starter and NCAA qualifier Newly McSpadden solidified his spot in the lineup with a convincing 6-2 victory over freshman Neil Erisman at 157 pounds.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Junior college transfer Kyle Griffin was solid at 165 pounds, claiming a 6-3 victory over Kevin Wainscott. Griffin used a full second period ride and a third period takedown to propel himself to the win.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â All-American Brandon Mason and NCAA qualifier Jack Jensen battled in a 174/184 match, with Mason using a first period takedown and three-point near fall to set the stage for an eventual 7-1 victory.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â In one of two matches at 184 pounds, true freshman and Stillwater native Walker Clarke picked up a 6-2 decision over fellow true freshman Adam Rosholt, younger brother of former Cowboy standout Jake Rosholt and current Cowboy heavyweight Jared Rosholt. Clarke broke open a 2-1 match in the third period with a takedown and two-point near fall.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â In the other 184-pound match, redshirt freshman Cody Hill scored a 7-5 victory over true freshman Chris McNeil in one of the more exciting matches of the night.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Jared Shelton wrapped up the evening with a 10-3 decision of true freshman Clayton Foster. Shelton blew the match open late in the third with a three-point near fall and finished with an impressive 2:15 of riding time.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â In a 133-pound exhibition, true freshman Jamal Parks was outstanding in an 18-8 major decision over Brad Neitenbach, racking up eight takedowns in his Cowboy debut.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â â€œJamal had a lot of takedowns and heâ€™s obviously someone who we look forward to watching in the future,â€ Smith said. â€œI thought he looked good.â€
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â The records start counting when the Cowboys return to action this Sunday at the Central Missouri Open. The event was a late add to the schedule. The entire Oklahoma State team will be in action.
