    Crutchmer, Perry win University Nationals titles

    AKRON, Ohio -- Oklahoma State wrestlers Kyle Crutchmer and Chris Perry won their respective brackets of the ASICS University Nationals on Sunday at the Louis and Freda Stile Athletic Field House at the University of Akron.

    The two will represent the United States at University Worlds Championships in Pecs, Hungary on July 8-12.

    Crutchmer and Perry earned their ways to a best two-out-of-three finals series, with their quarterfinal and semifinal wins early on Sunday morning.

    Crutchmer won the title at 80 kg with two-straight wins over Iowa State’s Tanner Weatherman, both resulting in 6-3 decisions.

    At 86 kilos, Perry faced Enock Francios, who he swept in two bouts, defeating him, 6-0, 6-2, to take the title.

    Tyler Caldwell and Austin Marsden both made it to the finals at 74 kg and 125 kg, respectively, but each fell to their opponents in two matches.

    At 70 kilos, Anthony Collica battled back to finish fourth after falling in the semifinals to Adam Hall, 11-4.

    Austin Schafer came back after a day-one loss to finish seventh at 97 kilos, with his 10-0 technical fall over Matthew Meadows.

    Nolan Boyd was knocked out of the tournament, suffering a 9-4 defeat to Patrick Kissell on the back side of the 86 kilogram bracket.
