    South Dakota State, So. Illinois-Edwardsville tie

    EDWARDSVILLE, Ill. -- The South Dakota State wrestling team battled Southern Illinois-Edwardsville to a 23-23 tie in non-conference wrestling action Wednesday night.

    SDSU clung to a 23-20 lead heading into the final match but lost by decision to end the scoring at 23.

    The tie brings SDSU to 1-6-1 on the season while SIU-E remains winless with a 0-9-1 record.

    The back-and-forth match featured six lead changes and two ties with both teams winning five weights each.

    Aaron Pickrel notched the quickest of his four pins this season, downing Dustin Young in 1:25, bolting SDSU to a quick 6-0 lead.

    After two consecutive wins by the Cougars at 133 and 141 pounds, SDSU regained the lead with decisions by Nick Hagar at 149 and Nick Flynn at 157, pushing the score to 13-12.

    The battle continued as neither team could mount consecutive victories the rest of the match. SDSU's Joe Rasmussen pinned Blake Reed at 174 pounds and Tyler Sorenson won 17-5 at 197 pounds to give the Jacks a 23-20 heading into the final match. SIU-E's David Devine defeated Kevin Kelly 4-0 at heavyweight to end the scoring at 23-23.
