    Three Oklahoma State wrestlers win titles at OCU Open

    OKLAHOMA CITY -- Oklahoma State’s wrestling squad sent 14 wrestlers to the Oklahoma City Open on Sunday, where three Cowboy newcomers earned titles at their respective weight classes.

    True freshmen Gary Wayne Harding and Chance Marsteller won titles at 133 and 157 pounds, respectively.

    Two of Harding’s three matches on the day resulted in falls, including his pin in 4:43 over Alvie Killingsworth of Oklahoma City University in the 133-pound finals.

    2014 Junior Hodge Trophy winner Marsteller earned his title over OCU’s Zach Skates in the form of a 6-1 decision that went to overtime. The freshman also tallied two wins by fall on the day.

    Luke Bean, a transfer from Arizona State, made his debut as a Cowboy, earning the 197-pound title.

    Bean started the day with an 11-2 major decision over Central Oklahoma’s Michael Conner, advancing him to the finals, where he defeated Brandon Ballard of Labette CC, 10-5.

    Three Cowboys produced third-place finishes, including junior Austin Miller (125), freshman Mike Magaldo (141) and redshirt freshman Chris Koo (157).

    Ryan Blees, a freshman from North Dakota, finished fourth at 157 pounds.

    Others representing OSU at the tournament were Donald Cannon (125), Dusty Hone (133), Lincoln Lemon (133), Jonce Blaylock (149), Landry Chappell (184), Tanner Allen (285) and Ethan Driver (285).

    The Cowboys will start the dual season on Nov. 16 in Miami, Okla., with a double header against Northeastern Oklahoma and South Dakota State.
