    Northwestern prevails in win over Northern Colorado

    BROOMFIELD, Colo. -- Northwestern (4-0) continued its winning ways on Sunday, topping Northern Colorado (0-1), 24-20, at Legacy High School. #9 Ryan Deakin put up a strong performance in his return to his alma mater, notching a major decision in his bout.

    After a pair of setbacks to start the dual, the Wildcats rebounded with a pair of falls -- one of the traditional variety and one of the technical kind.

    Conan Jennings, ranked 19th in the country in the most recent Intermat poll, recorded a first period buzzer-beating pin of Robert Winters, evening up the team scores at six points apiece. It was Jennings' third pin of the season and his fastest pin of the year.

    #12 Sebastian Rivera continued his undefeated start to his college career by logging a technical fall within two periods. He continued his trend of putting up football scores against his competition, topping Michael Johnson, 18-3.

    NU picked up its second pin of the afternoon from 141-pounder Alec McKenna, who took care of Benjamin Polkowske in 5:38. McKenna improved to 10-5 overall (3-1 dual) so far in the 2017-18 slate.

    With the win over Fate, Deakin improved to 4-0 on the dual slate this season via his fourth major decision win of the year.

    Shayne Oster took care of Northwestern's third-straight win, an 8-4 decision over Tyler Kinn. It was Oster's first dual win of the season and his sixth win overall.

    Northwestern wrestles again next weekend in a double dual in San Luis Obispo, California. The Wildcats will grapple against Cal Poly and Cal State Bakersfield, Dec. 15, at 7 p.m. CT.
