Jarrett called and said that UCO is doing very well. They have 5 in the finals. Two going for third and 1 going for 5th.

He believes they will win the National Championship.

Way to go UCO! I know Sweazy must be grinning from ear to ear.

Way to go UCO!

CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KEARNEY, Neb. (March10) – No. 3-ranked Central Oklahoma pushed five individuals into the finals and added three other top-five placers to wrap up its 15th national wrestling championship here Saturday afternoon at the Health and Sports Center.

It’s the seventh NCAA Division II title for the Bronchos, who also won here in 1995. UCO will go into tonight’s championship finals with an insurmountable 22-point lead over top-ranked and tournament host Nebraska-Kearney (120.5-98.5), with No. 2 Minnesota State-Mankato (59) third and No. 4 Nebraska-Omaha (58.5) fourth.

Tyler Zukerman at 125 pounds and Jared Henning at 133 opened Saturday morning’s semifinal round with their third straight upset wins to once again spark the Bronchos, with UCO also moving 141 Kyle Evans, 157 Jason Leavitt and 285 Josh LeadingFox into the finals.

Jared Hess added a third-place finish at 184, while 149 Shea Timothy was fourth and 197 Heath Jolley fifth.

“It’s a great feeling and I couldn’t be more proud of my team,” said 25th-year head coach David James, who has led UCO to 12 of its 15 national titles. “We came ready to wrestle and everybody went out and laid it on the line. We won some big matches early in every round and that gave us great momentum.”

Zukerman exploded for 10 third-period points to score a stunning 10-2 major decision over No. 2 Arsenia Barksdale of Adams State. The Lawton freshman broke a 1-1 tie with a takedown midway through the final stanza, added a pair of near-falls to extend the lead to 8-1 and then followed a Barksdale escape with a takedown at the buzzer to earn the bonus-point win.

Henning continued his amazing tournament with a 6-4 upset of No. 2 Andy Uhl of Findlay, avenging a loss in the Midwest Regional two weeks ago. Henning used a takedown with one second left in the first period to take a 4-1 lead and he made that hold up, barely fending off Uhl’s last-second takedown try to end the match.

Evans had his closest call of an unbeaten season in a 4-2 sudden-victory win over West Liberty State’s Doug Sura. Evans gave up just his fourth takedown of the season in falling behind 2-0 in the first 30 seconds of the match, cut the deficit to 2-1 with an escape and tied it with a third-period escape to force overtime.

The Edmond junior then pulled out the tense win on a takedown with just three seconds left in the one-minute sudden-victory period to improve to 38-0.

Leavitt knocked off No. 2 Brad Becker of Wisconsin-Parkside, last year’s 149-pound national champion, with a tough 4-3 triumph. Leavitt’s first-period takedown was the difference in the match as the Ponca City junior fought off Becker in the final 30 seconds to secure the win.

LeadingFox was in control all the way in a 6-0 shutout of Shippensburg’s Jason Groller. The Pawnee senior took a 2-0 lead with a first-period takedown, controlled Groller the entire second period and added an escape and takedown in the final stanza.

Timothy dropped an 8-2 semifinal decision to No. 2 Todd Meneely of Nebraska-Omaha, while Hess fell to No. 2 Jared Deaguero of Adams State 6-1.

Timothy and Hess both bounced back with consolation wins, with Hess topping No. 1-rated Mike Corcetti of Pittsburgh-Johnstown 3-2 to take third while Timothy dropped his consolation finals bout.

Jolley had a second-period fall in his first consolation match Saturday morning and then came back from a semifinal loss to upend top-rated Casey Woodall of Adams State 3-2 in the overtime tiebreaker.
