The Bulldogs began in an early hole, as freshman Dustin Rocha lost by technical fall to No. 17 Anthony Baza at 149 pounds, and then gave up three straight forfeits to fall behind 23-0 early in the dual. The Bulldogs recovered with a solid win from Greg Gifford, a 19-6 major decision to get Fresno State on the board.
More injury troubles hurt the Bulldogs at 197-pounds, as Brandon Halsey was forced to retire on an injury default, giving the Roadrunners another 6-point match. Wins from Sean Carlson at 133 pounds and Cody Parker at heavyweight were unable to cut into that gap.
Fresno State continues wrestling action on Friday, when the Bulldogs start a trip to Oklahoma with a stop in Stillwater to face No. 2 Oklahoma State. The team then heads to Norman to wrestle Oklahoma on Saturday afternoon.
