NORMAN, Okla. -- The Oklahoma wrestling team crowned seven individual champions and placed 10 wrestlers at the 35th annual Oklahoma Open Saturday in Norman.
“This was a good tournament for our young guys to grow up in and that is what these meets are for,” said head coach Jack Spates.
Sooners claiming individual titles were Sam Hazewinkel (125), Kyle Terry (141), Matt Storniolo (149), Wes Roberts (174), Justin Dyer (184), Joel Flaggert (197) and Jake Hager (HWT).
Hazewinkel coming off of a Brockport/Oklahoma Open championship and a win in the NWCA All-Star Classic claimed his third Oklahoma Open championship. Flaggert had a strong showing after losing this past week in the NWCA All-Star Classic and claimed his third consecutive Oklahoma Open championship. Dyer also repeated as the 184 pound champion, registering a fall in all of his matches Hager claimed his third individual title of the year (Brockport/Oklahoma Gold Classic, Missouri Open) as he repeated as the heavweight champion.
Also placing for the Sooners were Will Rowe (157) third, Chad Terry (149) third, Cody Hilbun (174) third and Austin David (HWT) who finished fourth.
“Overall I am very pleased with our performance,” continued Spates. “Our showing in this event boads well for us as we prepare for two very, very challenging duals against the University of Central Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.”
As well as hosting the college portion of the Open the Oklahoma Open also has a High School and Junior High Open.
“This tournament year in and year out continues to be a tougher tournament than the Oklahoma High School State tournament,” Spates said. “Every divsion is competitive and tough and that makes it a great challenge for the young wrestlers.”
The Sooners will open the dual portion of their schedule when they travel to Edmond to wrestle the University of Central Oklahoma on Wednesday, Nov. 30, at 7 p.m.
