"It's always nice to come out of Wyoming with a win," OU head coach Mark Cody said. "They are a very well-coached team. They had a packed house and were very loud, which made the match a lot more fun. We still have a lot of work to do, but I'm happy because our guys competed the whole match. That's what you have to do to win at this level."
Six Sooners picked up wins in the contest, including one victory over a ranked opponent when sophomore Ryan Millhof (125 pounds) tallied a 6-3 decision over No. 15 Drew Templeman in the dual's opening bout. Millhof entered the final frame with a 2-1 lead and secured the win with a third-period four-point nearfall.
Cody Brewer continued the momentum for OU with a win by fall in 2:29 over P.T. Garcia at 133 pounds. Brewer tacked on two takedowns before the pin.
At 141 pounds, freshman Davion Jeffries downed Cole Mendenhall by 10-3 decision, registering one four-point nearfall, one two-point nearfall, a takedown and an escape. Jeffries also secured the riding time point in the match.
