Beavs Spurn Stanford on Senior Day
February 26, 2023 | Wrestling
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Nine of the ten bouts went to the Beavers as the 27th-ranked Oregon State wrestling team dispatched Stanford by a 30-3 margin on Sunday. Of the nine won decisions, four Beavers took down ranked opponents, including Matthew Olguin's win over No. 3.
Brandon Kaylor kicked off the day with a back-and-forth battle at 125 that didn't see the first points until his escape that started the second period gave him a 1-0 lead. Kaylor only needed one takedown for the win over Stanford's 26th-ranked Nico Provo. Oregon State grabbed the lead – one they;d never relinquish – at 3-0.
In another close bout, Jason Shaner took the 133 lb. bout by a 4-2 margin. A reversal with not much time remaining in the third gave him the two points needed to knock off No. 29 Jackson DiSario to give OSU the 6-0 advantage.
Cleveland Belton came from behind to thwart an upset bid by Jason Miranda. The 141 lb. bout saw Belton trail after the first but leveled the affair at 4 going into the final period. Belton used a takedown and riding time point for separation to up the lead to 9 for the Beavs.
Riley Gurr – a graduating member of the Beavs – took a major decision at 10-2 for his final performance in Gill Coliseum. He jumped to a 2-0 lead after the first and never looked back, eventually racking up another four points plus another for riding time in the third. The major decision marked his first of the season.
Stanford got their lone win when No. 11 Daniel Cardenas won a hard-fought battle with Isaiah Crosby in the 157 lb. bout.
Oregon State shook it off and started to stretch the lead back when Matthew Olguin upset third-ranked Shane Griffith following the intermission. An escape by Griffith to start the second gave him an early advantage, but Olguin answered with an escape of his own to start the third and a takedown to seal it. The riding time point for Griffith wasn't enough to force an extra period.
Mateo Olmos needed a little bit more time for his win by decision but grabbed the necessary takedown to defeat 25th-ranked Tyler Eischens by a 4-2 mark. Eischens' late escape in the third forced the sudden victory period.
In the 184 lb. clash, Trey Munoz collected his third win by major decision when he defeated Brook Byers by a commanding 24-13 margin. Despite trailing 2-0 early, he doubled Byers at 10-5 going into the second. Showing no signs of slowing down, Munoz racked up five takedowns and an escape to bring his lead to 21-10 before taking the 24-13 major.
Competing for the final time in Gill, Tanner Harvey took his second major decision against a Pac-12 opponent as he defeated No. 31 Nick Stemmet. The graduate student built his lead to a big one early, as he used two four-point near falls to a 12-1 lead after one. After Stemmet outscored Harvey 3-0 in the second, Harvey escaped once, took Stemmet down and coasted on riding time to secure the major.
JJ Dixon – another graduating member of the team – won his final bout in Gill in the heavyweight tilt. A reversal and near-fall highlighted a second frame that saw him get a 4-0 lead after a scoreless first on his way to the 5-2 win.
Oregon State will compete in the Pac-12 Championships next Sunday in Stanford, California in their next time out.
