    Oklahoma takes down Iowa State

    AMES, Iowa -- The 11th-ranked Oklahoma wrestling squad picked up its second Big 12 victory after defeating Iowa State, 22-13, at the Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa.

    The Sooners (3-0, 2-0) handed the Cyclones (0-5, 0-2) their fifth straight loss after taking the first five bouts of the night and tallying three decisions, two major decisions and one technical fall.

    Jarrod Patterson, a junior from Cushing, Okla., gave OU its first bonus points of the day after scoring a major decision victory over ISU's 12th-ranked Ryak Finch, 10-0. Patterson earned a takedown and five points off nearfalls in the first period. The No. 4 125 pounder in the country, Patterson, added a reversal in the second and posted 1:06 of riding time.

    At 133 pounds OU's 14th-ranked Jordan Keller downed the Cyclones Shayden Terukina, 8-3. Keller fought for a takedown in the first period and added two more in the bout. Terukina had one takedown and an escape.

    OU got its second bonus point when 141-pounder Kendric Maple, ranked No. 8, routed Iowa State's Luke Goetti, 13-5. In the bout, Maple had five takedowns, a reversal and 2:23 of riding time to coast to victory. In duals this year Maple has earned bonus points in each of his bouts.

    Leading 11-0, OU's No. 14-ranked Nick Lester added a technical fall win over ISU's Joey Cozart at 149 pounds. Lester took a 4-0 lead into the second period where he had a takedown and nine points off nearfalls. He closed out the scoring with an escape 0:17 into the third period.

    Matt Lester became the fifth-straight Sooner to earn a win in the dual after he downed Michael Moreno of Iowa State, 9-5. Trailing 2-1 in the second, Lester reversed Moreno but was penalized for locking hands. With the score knotted at three in the third, Moreno reversed Lester who then returned the favor and reversed Moreno 0:36 later. Lester pulled a 3-point nearfall to earn the win.

    ISU's Andrew Sorenson, ranked No. 5 among 165 pounders, gave the Cyclones their first points of the dual after he posted an 11-1 major decision victory over Oklahoma's Bubby Graham.

    The 174 pound bout pitted OU's Chase Nelson against the Cyclones 10th-ranked Chris Spangler. Spangler jumped out to an early 7-2 lead after the first period but Nelson came storming back. In the third, Nelson had two takedowns and trailed by 2-points when Spangler was penalized for stalling which gave Nelson a point; however, the match ended seconds later with a final of 12-11.

    The 184 pound bout had OU's Erich Schmidtke, No. 17, squaring off against ISU's 15th-ranked Boaz Beard. The bout was tied 3-3 after a Schmidtke escape to begin the third period, but Beard pulled away with a takedown and stalling point that went against the Sooner.

    Junior Keldrick Hall earned the Sooners final win of the match after he defeated ISU's Kyven Gadson, ranked No. 13, by a 6-1 decision. In the bout, Hall had three takedowns and two escapes.

    In the heavyweight bout, the Cyclones Matt Gibson, No. 18, ousted OU's Elijah Madison, 8-2.

    Next up, the Sooners have the week off before traveling to Stillwater, Okla., for the first installment of Bedlam wrestling on Sunday, Dec. 11 at 2 p.m.
