CSUB Takes Down Buffalo, 16-15

Follow @CSUBWrestling

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. – CSU Bakersfield's wrestling team picked up its first win of the 2019-20 season in thrilling fashion. A quick start gave Buffalo an early lead over CSU Bakersfield, but the Roadrunners would tie the score 9-9 just before intermission then win the last two bouts to earn a 16-15 victory in the Icardo Center.

Buffalo took the first two bouts at 165 and 174 before Josh Loomer put the `Runners on the scoreboard with a 7-3 decision over the Bulls' Peter Acciardi. The 184-pounder posted his first dual win of the season and handed Acciardi his third loss.

Bakersfield's momentum continued to roll with Jarrod Snyder earning a 2-0 decision at heavy-weight as he tied the match 9-9 with five bouts remaining in the contest. Buffalo rallied with wins in the next two bouts, but a strong CSUB finish at 149 and 157 would prove to be too much for the Bulls.

In the 149 bout, Russel Rohlfing's 9-1 major decision brought the `Runners within two points heading into the final bout of the match. Wyatt Gerl tallied his first dual win on the year with a decision over Buffalo's Hunter Shaut for the come-from-behind 16-15 vicoty.

CSUB (1-3) returns to the mat for its annual Roadrunner Open on Sunday, Nov. 24. Competition is set to begin at 9 a.m. in the Icardo Center and Old Gym.
