Panthers down Jacks 35-6

January 23, 2010

CEDAR FALLS, Iowa - The University of Northern Iowa used extra-point victories in four weight classes and a pin to cruise past the South Dakota State wrestling team 35-6 in Western Wrestling Conference action Saturday night at the West Gym in Cedar Falls, Iowa.

The loss drops the Jacks to 1-7-1 overall, 0-1 in the conference, while the Panthers improve to 6-8 overall, 2-0 in conference duals.

The Panthers jumped out to a 9-0 lead before Dustin Walraven's third-period heroics put the Jacks on the board at 141 pounds. Down 4-1 entering the third period to UNI's Charlie Ettelson, Walraven scored two takedowns to Ellelson's two escapes to whittle the lead to 6-5. With 15 seconds remaining in the match, Ellelson recorded an escape before Walraven earned a stalling point and struck the final blow on a takedown with one second remaining to earn a come-from-behind 8-7 victory. The win improves Walraven's record to 17-9 overall.

At 197 pounds, Tyler Sorenson scored a 7-4 victory over Dustin Bauman. Leading 5-1 after the first, Sorenson added a takedown and a stall point to round out his scoring. The victory improves his team-leading record to 20-5 on the season.

At heavyweight, Kevin Kelly gave a highly regarded Christian Brantley a run for his money, but fell in a tightly contested match 5-4. Kelly led entering the third period 4-3 but Brantley added an escape and a riding-time point to squeak through with the victory.

The Jack return home for their home conference opener against Air Force on Saturday at 7 p.m.
