Joey Granata (R-Sr., Oceanside, Calif., Fallbrook HS) broke the seal for the Roadrunners when he recorded his 33rd career pin at 174 pounds.  Granata stuck No. 14 Jake Swartz with 25 seconds remaining.  No. 1 Kirk Smith defeated Troy Goodban (R-Sr., Bellflower, Calif., Bellflower HS) 9-2 for Boise State in the 184-pound bout.

The 197-pound match between Riley Orozco (R-Sr., Fallon, Nev., Churchill County HS) and No. 20 Matt Casperson saw no score recorded through the first two periods. Casperson started down to start the final period and escaped from Orozco 10 seconds in. Casperson was called for a technical violation with 45 seconds to go (fleeing). Casperson earned the 2-1 win by holding a riding-time advantage.

David Morgan (R-Sr., Bakersfield, Calif., Centennial HS) and J.T. Felix did record a score in the first period of the heavyweight bout. A Morgan escape gave him the advantage heading into the third period, but a Felix escape tied the match, sending Morgan into an overtime bout for the sixth time this season.  For the third time this season, Morgan went into third overtime where he posted an escape for the 2-1 victory.

Tyler Iwamura (R-So., San Diego, Calif., Santa Fe Christian HS) and No. 14 Alan Bartelli exchanged a pair of escapes to send their 125-pound match into overtime where Bartelli earned a takedown with four seconds to go for the final 34-9 team score.

 "Boise State is a really good team," said CSUB Head Coach Mike Mendoza.  "Granata went out ready to wrestle. He was able to control the flow of the match which led him to the pin. (In the heavyweight match) There was a little bit of action, but both guys have really good defense.  David is in really good shape and he was able to take advantage of his conditioning come away with the win."

CSUB returns to the mats Saturday when the Roadrunners travel to San Francisco State for the California Collegiate Open.
