AMES – Iowa State (6-7, 1-4 Big 12) fell to No. 5 Oklahoma State (9-2, 5-0 Big 12) on Sunday afternoon. The Cyclones received a great individual effort from redshirt freshman Ian Parker, as he defeated two-time defending national champion, Dean Heil.
The newly implemented 141-pounder knocked off No. 5 Heil by 3-1 decision. The Saint. John’s, Mich., native earned an escape to begin the second period, which was answered by a Heil escape to begin the third. Parker scored a takedown with just over a minute to go in the third and rode the Cowboy out to seal the victory.
It was Parker’s second win of the weekend. He defeated Oklahoma’s Mike Longo on Friday night. After a scoreless first, Parker scored a takedown and an escape in the second and held a 3-0 advantage heading to the third. Longo reversed Parker to begin the third, but Parker got to his feet and held on to win the match, 4-2.
