    Central Oklahoma routs Central Missouri

    EDMOND -- Back-to-back first-period falls by Kaleb Cradduck and Chris Watson along with a trio of forfeits was more than enough to power No. 6-ranked Central Oklahoma to a 41-10 drubbing of Central Missouri Thursday night at Hamilton Field House.

    UCO improved to 7-5 and ended a two-match winning streak with the lopsided win to stay perfect (34-0) against the Mules in a dual that took just over an hour to complete.

    The Bronchos won five of the seven matches contested, getting a technical fall from Ryan Brooks and regular decisions from Kelly Henderson and Zach Aylor in addition to the two quick pins.

    UCM actually led 10-5 after the first three weights, getting a surprising fall at 133 and a major decision at 141, but it was all UCO after that as the Bronchos took the final seven matches.

    “We did some good things at a few weights, but we also didn't finish like we needed to in a couple of places and put ourselves in a bad position at 133 that cost us,” head coach David James said. “I liked the way Kaleb and Chris came out with the mindset of getting a fall and Ryan did a nice job for us in the first match.”

    Brooks started the rout with a 16-1 technical fall at 125, scoring three of his four near-falls in the first period to open up a quick 11-1 lead before ending the match at the 5:53 mark.

    The Mules struck back at 133 where Eric Mateo headlocked Dustin Reed to his back and got the fall 2:23 into the opening period. Reed had two takedowns and a near-fall in jumping on top 6-2 before Mateo scored the stunning pin.

    UCM picked up a major decision at 141 to make it 10-5, but Ky Corley picked up the first of three forfeits at 149 to put the Bronchos on top to stay and start the rout.

    Cradduck moved up a weight to fill in for injured Cory Dauphin and wasted little time against Zeb Spicer, getting the opening takedown and then turning him for the fall in just 1:21.

    Watson easily bettered that, scoring a takedown 10 seconds into his match with Todd Brier and recording his sixth fall of the season 32 seconds later.

    Henderson used a takedown and reverse for a 5-2 triumph at 174 and Aylor had the lone takedown in a 4-1 victory at 184 before Jarrett Edison and Cody Dauphin picked up forfeits in the last two weights.

    UCO goes to Marshall, Mo. Saturday for the Missouri Valley Open before ending the dual season next week.
