 Spartan Wrestlers Pin Davis 51-0

 
     
 

SJSU wrestling coach T.J. Kerr expected his team to defeat UC Davis Friday night but not in the devastating manner in which it did.
 
Six Spartans recorded pins in a 51-0 blitz over the Aggies in Spartan Gym. The win improved SJSU's dual meet record to 2-0. It was Davis' first action of the season. 
 
The Spartans host CSU Humboldt tomorrow night at 7:30. 
 
Bob McDowell threw his foe to the mat in the first round. Rusty Lockwood, Brian Strock, Mike Snipes, Duane Harris, and Guy Heath all had second round pins. 
 
"I expected to win," Kerr said, "but i didn't expect six pins and i didn't expect to win by such a decisive margin." 
 
Asked if he thought the Spartans might let down after a triumph over UC Berkeley two days before, Kerr said, "I was afraid we'd be a little flat but we came at them from the opening bout and i knew we'd be in good shape." 
 
In that opening match, sophomore Mike Rodrigues decisioned Davis' Brad Fuller 10-7. 
 
John Middlestead, Reggie Thompson, and Jim Rey also won by decision.
