    Cal State Fullerton wins afternoon bout in San Francisco

    San Francisco State's wrestling team won the first three matches of this afternoon's non-conference dual meet with the visiting Titans of Cal State Fullerton (2-9), but the Titans rebounded and won the last seven matches to take the dual meet, 29-8, at Main Gymnasium.

    The Gators (0-7) will return to the mat this Saturday, January 28'th in Warrensburg, Missouri, for four dual meets against Truman State (MO), Southwest State (MN), Minnesota State-Moorhead, and Central Missouri State University. Fullerton wrestles again tonight at Stanford.

    Sandeep Singh won the first match of the afternoon by a 5-3 decision over the Titans' heavyweight Matt Methling. At 125, SF State's Brian Watanabe won by a 5-4 comeback decision over Johnny Rojas, a Lassen College transfer making his Titan debut. The final Gator win came at 133 as junior Virgil Lockett won by a 6-5 decision in overtime over T.J. Dillashaw.

    Teddy Astorga at 141 changed the momentum with a 16-7 major decision over Alek Butler and Morgan Atkinson scored another four team points with a 12-4 win over Merrick Tan at 149. Shawn Reilly put the Titans ahead to stay with a technical fall at 157 and the Titans won out with Chris Chambers winning by forfeit at 197 to wrap up the scoring.
