LARAMIE, Wyo. – The Oregon State wrestling team battled tough against No. 12 Wyoming but fell short against the Cowboys on Sunday inside the Uniwyo Sports Complex.

The afternoon started at 157 pounds with No. 17 Hunter Willits getting the ball rolling for the Beavers. After a stalemate for the majority of the first period Hunter found a late takedown into a two-point near fall for a 4-0 lead after one. The sophomore controlled the rest of the match for a 10-0 major decision.

The Beavers got back on track at 174 pounds thanks do a decision win from Colt Doyle over Hayden Hastings.
