| For the second time this season, the SJSU wrestling team came out on the short end of the stick against Cal Poly
San Luis Obispo. |
| |
| On Dec. 3, the Spartans were defeated 39-14 by the Mustangs. In a rematch at home on Saturday, things didn't change
much as they lost 26-19. |
| |
| SJSU (2-9-1) did get off to fast start, winning most of the lower weight divisions. |
| |
| Cal Poly SLO forfeited the 118-pound match because the Mustangs had no healthy athletes in that category. Greg
Eisner (123) picked up six points for the Spartans to give SJSU a 6-3 lead. |
| |
| With the 134-pound match resulting in a tie, the Spartans lead was cut to 8-5. |
| |
| SJSU's Ken Brison (143) then widened the gap by handily defeating his opponent 14-2. |
| |
| The Spartans compiled more points when Matt Toves (158) pinned his Mustang opponent in the second round with 1:01
left on the clock. |
| |
| After Toves' win, SJSU's lead was 19-8. That lead was short-lived, however, as SJSU's heavier weight divisions
lost the remaining four matches. |
| |
| "Their strength in the heavier divisions is where our weaknesses were," SJSU coach Danny Kida said. |
