    Red defeats White

    Edmond, Okla. –- The Red squad dominated the White, 28-15, tonight in Edmond as the University of Oklahoma wrestling team held its annual Red/White ranking match in Edmond, Okla.

    Sam Hazewinkel began the evening scoring a fall over Anthony Hayes at 125 pounds to give the red a 6-0 advantage. Hazewinkel disposed of Hayes at the 3:58 mark in the second period.

    Freshman Brian Shelton continued where Hazewinkel left off in the 133 pound match, defeating Nolan Spring by a decision of 5-3.

    In the following match, Redshirt freshman Kyle Terry registered a major decision, 14-4, over Trey Blakely at 141 pounds.

    Chad Terry recorded the white's first points of the evening as he defeated Matt Sansone by a decision of 10-4.

    Will Rowe kept the white team in the match at 157 pounds as he pinned Chris DeVilbiss with one second remaining in the third period at the 3:59 mark of the match.

    "I was not expecting Chris to come out and be as competitive as he was, he is getting better each day and is a very tough competitor," Rowe said.

    Rowe begins the year at 157 pounds where he was one of six NCAA qualifiers for the Sooners last year.

    "Coming in the match I was nervous for the team, but this prepares us for Saturdays duals. The advantage that tonight gave us was that this felt like a real match and it helped get the nerves and butterflies out of our system before the regular season begins."

    Shane Seibert put the red up by seven after the 165 pound match as he scored a major decision by a score of 13-2 over Blake Allen.

    Josh Hinton defeated Eugene Young by a decision of 5-2 at 184 pounds. Two-time All-American Joel Flaggert rounded out the scoring for the red at 197 pounds as he pinned Matt Cole in the first period at the 1:22 mark to put the red up by 16.

    At heavyweight Brad Farmer defeated Nathan Fernandez by a decision of 5-4.

    "I was very pleased with our performance tonight. I usually leave our ranking matches wondering if we have been working, but I felt we looked very good," head coach Jack Spates said.

    "Sam Hazewinkel looked awesome as did Brian Shelton," Spates added. "Will Rowe wrestled a very tough match and I was very pleased with his effort. For the most part I was very pleased with our showing tonight."

    The Sooners begin the regular season Saturday night at the Howard McCasland Field House when they host Missouri Valley and UCO in a double-dual that starts at 5 p.m.
