After topping the Stanford Cardinal Saturday night, the Beavers kept the ball rolling through Sunday, advancing them to 6-3 on the season.
The Runners earned the first four points of the match as Ian Nickell defeated Joey Delgado (141) 9-0. However, seniors Scott Sakaguchi (149) and RJ Pena (157) got the Beavs back on track once again. Sakaguchi claimed a 12-2 major decision over Bakersfield’s Dalton Kelly, while Pena matched that performance with a 14-1 major decision over Spencer Hill, giving Oregon State an 8-4 lead.
Bakersfield found their way into the scoring column in the 165 lb. match as David Meza downed Oregon State’s Toney Chay 3-2, bringing the Runners within one.
The Beavers responded by winning the next five bouts to clutch the victory. Joe Latham (174) started things off by recording a 12-3 major decision over Jesus Ambriz, giving the Beavers a solid five point lead. Austin Morehead (184) followed in kind, tallying a 16-2 major decision over Sean Pollock.
Taylor Meeks (197) earned a 7-3 decision over Bakersfield’s Ruben Franklin, moving the score to 19-7. Amarveer Dhesi (HWT) then recorded a 3-1 decision over Sam Cervantes, extending the Beaver’s lead to 15.
Moving to the 125 match, Joey Palmer tallied a 6-4 decision victory over Sergio Mendez, heading into the last bout of the day. Bakersfield’s Jose Mendoza would claim a 5-4 decision over Drew Van Anrooy (133), but it wouldn’t be enough to overtake the Beavers, as Oregon State cruised to a 25-10 victory over the Runners.
The Beavers finished their first conference road trip undefeated, collecting their first two Pac-12 wins of the season. Oregon State returns home next weekend and will host the next four dual matches in Gill Coliseum.
