#19 Monarchs Win Two Weights at Hokie Open
Jesse Strawn dominates 197 lb weight class
Nov. 17, 2008

Jesse Strawn
1st Place - 197 lbs

SALEM, Va. -- In their first action of the 2008-09 season, junior Jesse Strawn (197) and redshirt sophomore James Nicholson both won their weight class at the First Annual Hokie Open yesterday. Strawn dominated his new weight, bumping up from 184, posting three pins and a technical fall to take home the win.

At his new weight class, Strawn made a statement with his dominance, pinning three straight grapplers after a first round technical fall. All three pins came in the first period, including one against UTC's Niko Brown right before the buzzer sounded. In the championship bout, it took Strawn just 1:38 to put both of Virginia Tech's DJ Bruce's shoulders on the mat.

"James Nicholson and Jesse Strawn had strong performances this weekend as they dominated the competition," said head coach Steve Martin.

ODU will face #8 Oklahoma State on Saturday, November 22 at 2:00 pm, and then will head to Norman, Okla. to face #18 Oklahoma on Sunday, November 23 at 4:00 pm.

Final Results - Hokie Open
125: James Nicholson (4-0) 1st Place

Monarchs Finish 11th at Midlands Wrestling Championships

Jesse Strawn drops #7 Hudson Taylor from Maryland

Dec. 30, 2008

EVANSTON, Ill. -- The 21st ranked Monarchs finished with an 11th place finish at the Midlands Wrestling Championship, posting 53 total points at the event and placing three wrestlers. Junior Jesse Strawn posted a win against Maryland's 7th ranked Hudson Taylor in the consolation bracket and finished fifth, while senior Ryan Williams finished fifth and sophomore James Nicholson was third.

"The Midlands is the closest competition that you can participate in that mirrors the NCAA tournament and we had great performances out of James Nicholson,Ryan Williams, and Jesse Strawn," said head coach Steve Martin. Strawn pinned a returning All-American and finished ahead of several nationally ranked opponents."

Jesse Strawn also placed at Midlands, with a fantastic showing in the wrestlebacks. First, he posted a 5-2 win over the #7 seeded Patrick Bond. Bond is a two-time NCAA Qualifier and was ranked in the top ten earlier this season. The win gave Strawn momentum as he faced a current top ten grappler, Hudson Taylor (Maryland), ranked as high as 6th in the nation.

Strawn was able to turn Taylor and get a pin in the second period, marking the biggest win in Strawn's career as he toppled the Terrapin All-American, who was ranked as high as second in the nation this season. It was just his eighth loss in his last 64 matches. The second period pin was just the second time over the last two seasons Taylor was beat by fall.

Strawn then faced Max Askren for the second time this season and posted six points on Missouri's third-ranked grappler, but fell by decision in the consolation semi's. Strawn faced two-time NCAA Qualifier Trevor Brandvold (Wisconsin) in the fifth place matchup and won with a medical forfeit. He finished the event with a 5-2 record and a fifth place finish.


Final Results:
197: Jesse Strawn (5-2) -- 5th Place

"Then, after a loss at 184 lbs, junior Jesse Strawn had the opportunity to seal the match. He seemed primed to do so, too, with a 6-0 lead in the third period, but Virginia Tech's D.J. Bruce managed to counter a shot late as Strawn was looking for a major decision. Bruce got Strawn on his back with plenty of time, over a minute, to work. Strawn kept his second shoulder up and finally managed to roll through and nearly reversed Bruce and scored the escape with 14 seconds remaining. He literally escaped with a 7-5 decision and sealed the big win for ODU."

The Colonial Athletic Association Conference Tournament

"Old Dominion junior Jesse Strawn also had an exciting day on the mats for the Monarchs, wrestling back in the consolation bracket. In his first match of the day, against Rider's Mike Miller, Strawn and Miller were tied with just ten seconds remaining in regulation when Strawn not only got the takedown, but got Miller on his back and scored a pin with just one second remaining. Strawn then had to face Hofstra's Joe Fagiano in the third/fourth place matchup and was trailing the whole match before reversing Fagiano with just seconds remaining to win by one, 5-4 and guarantee his second trip to the NCAA Tournament."
