    Fast start carries NDSU past host Northwestern

    EVANSTON, N.D. -- North Dakota State University came out strong winning the first four matches and recorded a pin, tech fall and major decision to defeat previously unbeaten Northwestern University 24-12 in a non-conference dual match Friday, Dec. 2, at Welsh-Ryan Arena.

    NDSU (2-1) is scheduled to wrestle Indiana (2-1) at 1 p.m. and host Southern Illinois-Edwardsville (0-0) at 2:30 pm. Sunday, Dec. 4.

    North Dakota State 149 Mitch Friedman broke free for an 11-5 decision over Shayne Oster before 12th-ranked 157-pounder Clay Ream recorded his fourth pin of the season at 2:42 over Anthony Petrone. Ream improved to 6-0 this season including 3-0 in duals.

    Redshirt freshman 165-pounder Andrew Fogarty, ranked 19th nationally, made it four in a row for the Bison with 15-2 major decision over Ben Sullivan to push the NDSU lead to 16-0. Fogarty is now 6-1 overall, 2-1 in duals.

    Northwestern (4-1) reeled off three straight wins before 285-pound senior Ben Tynan stopped the run with a convincing 6-0 decision over Conan Jennings and put the Bison ahead 19-9.

    North Dakota State 125-pound senior Josh Rodriguez exploded over the final two periods to post a 22-7 tech fall over Anthony Rubinetti. The fifth-ranked Rodriguez recorded his fourth tech fall of the season to push his record to 6-0 overall and 3-0 in duals.
