Orange & Black intrasquad set
November 03, 2015 | Wrestling
Corvallis, Ore. – The Oregon State wrestling team will host its annual Orange & Black intrasquad meet at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Gill Coliseum. Admission is free.
It's OSU's final warmup before the Beavers open the regular season on Sunday at the Mike Clock Open at Pacific University in Forest Grove. They begin the dual meet season on Nov. 15 against West Virginia, Northern Iowa and Nebraska at the Northeast Duals in Albany, N.Y.
“Basically we're just getting guys matches,” OSU coach Jim Zalesky said in previewing the intrasquad. “We haven't had a lot of match situations in practice yet. This will put them on their time limit and let us see how they do in a seven-minute match.
“The tournament will determine if we need more wrestleoffs” to determine a lineup for the Albany duals. “We will set our lineup and see who will take out east after the Mike Clock Open.”
Redshirt sophomore Cody Crawford won't compete as there is no other 197-pounder.
Wednesday's projected pairings are:
125: Ronnie Bresser vs. Kegan Calkins.
133: Joey Palmer vs. Ronnie Stevens.
