    Five OSU Cowboys win Joe Parisi Open titles

    ST. CHARLES, Mo. -- Five Oklahoma State wrestlers in Jon Morrison, Alex Dieringer, Tyler Caldwell, Chris Perry and Austin Marsden brought home Joe Parisi Open titles in their respective weight classes on Saturday in St. Charles, Mo.

    The tournament was highlighted by a 19-1 technical fall for Caldwell over Curt Maas of Northern Iowa in his first match of the day to earn him his 100th career win. Caldwell went on to major his opponent in the semifinals and edge Zach Toal in the 165-pound finals.

    Morrison earned a couple of bonus-point wins en route to taking the crown at 133 pounds, including a four-minute fall over Andrew Anglebeck of Lindenwood and a 14-5 major decision over Missouri’s Eric Wilson.

    Dieringer pinned his way through his first four rounds, taking down four opponents in just over five minutes. He met up with Joseph LaVallee of Missouri, where he earned a 7-4 win to take the 157-pound bracket.

    Returning national champ Chris Perry improved to 5-0 on the season and added two falls and a technical fall to his season’s bonus-point wins all while winning the title at 174 pounds.

    The final champion for the Cowboys was redshirt sophomore Austin Marsden, who wrestled in the heavyweight bracket. Marsden went 4-0 on the day, earning decisions in each of his bouts and defeating Donnell Walker of Maryville, 3-2, in the finals to win the bracket.

    Four other Cowboys made it to the finals but fell just short of Parisi Open titles. Eddie Klimara, Anthony Collica, Josh Kindig and Blake Rosholt each produced runner-up finishes in their respective weight classes.

    Austin Miller finished third at 125 pounds, while Kyle Crutchmer finished third at 184 pounds.
    The No. 3 Cowboys will be back on the mat on Dec. 1 in Norman when they take on No. 5 Oklahoma at 2 p.m.
