Josh Keefe Scores Upset Over No. 1-Ranked Wrestler in Oklahoma State Dual

 

 

STILLWATER, Okla.---Wrestler Josh Keefe scored an 11-9 victory Friday over Oklahoma State's Johnny Thompson, the nation's top-ranked collegiate wrestler at 133 pounds. The Mocs lost the overall dual match 29-9 to the No. 1-ranked Cowboys in the season opener for both squads.

 

Keefe, a redshirt freshman from Ringgold, Ga., was behind 7-5 after two periods. His escape with 1:45 remaining in the match proved to be the difference in the upset victory.

 

Keefe's win snapped Thompson's 18-match win streak. Thompson, who was 28-2 in 2002-03, is a two-time NCAA Champion and three-time All-America.

 

The Mocs took an early 6-0 lead in the match. Matt Pitts edged No. 17-ranked Cody Stiles 6-5 at 125 pounds before Keefe's win. A Pitts takedown with one minute left decided the match.

 

OSU's Ronnie Delk cut into the lead with a 20-15 decision over Michael Keefe at 141, and the Cowboys, the defending NCAA Champions, took the lead for good on fourth-ranked Zack Esposito's technical fall over Robert Buckhaults at 149.

 

OSU added victories at 157, 165 and 174 before UTC's John Davis out-pointed Brett Munson 5-4 at 184 pounds. The Cowboys closed out the match with a pin from Rusty Blackmon at 197 and a 14-6 major decision from heavyweight Willie Gruenwald, ranked sixth nationally.

 

The Mocs will compete at the Missouri Open next weekend.
