Penn State 21 Michigan 16
 February 16, 2007
|
| ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Despite a strong performance at the middle weights and bonus win at 165 and 184 pounds, the No. 23-ranked University of Michigan wrestling team fell one match short in a 21-16 loss against No. 11 Penn State in the home finale on Friday evening (Feb. 16) in front of 706 fans at Cliff Keen Arena. Senior/junior captain Eric Tannenbaum (Naperville, Ill./North HS) claimed his 100th career win in strong fashion with a 12-3 major decision over Dave Rella at 165 pounds. Tannenbaum, ranked second nationally, converted on five takedowns and added 1:58 in riding time advantage to pick up his sixth major decision of the season and improve his record to perfect 20-0. Junior/sophomore Tyrel Todd (Bozeman, Mont./Bozeman HS) also captured a big win for the Wolverine squad at the 184-pound division, scoring a second-period fall -- his fourth of the season -- against the Nittany Lions' Phil Bomberger. Todd dominated throughout the match, scoring five takedowns in the opening frame to build up a six-point lead after three minutes. Starting the second period on top, Todd rode hard before locking up a near-side cradle to roll Bomberger to his back to collect the pin at the 4:48 mark. Despite the bonus wins late in the match, the Wolverine could never recover from the early deficit after Penn State claimed the opening three weights, including back-to-back major decisions at 125 and 133 pounds. Sophomore/freshman Justin Chrzanowski (Metamora, Mich./Lapeer West HS) put the Wolverines' first points on the board with a 7-2 decision at 141 pounds over the Lions' Bryan Heller. Chrzanowski claimed his points on the mat, countering errant shots by Heller in the first and third periods to force scrambles and score. In the second, the Wolverine scrambled for a reversal midway through and frame and added 2:22 in riding time to seal up his second dual win in three matches. Senior/junior captain Josh Churella (Northville, Mich./Novi HS) responded in kind in the subsequent bout at 149 pounds, scoring a takedown in each period to cruise past 16th-ranked Dan Vallimont 8-3. Churella early with a first-period single leg, added a double early in the second and sealed it up with another single late in the third, while accumulating 2:11 in riding time. Senior/junior Jeff Marsh (Dexter, Mich./Dexter HS) suffered a narrow defeat at 157 pounds as Bubba Jenkins used a takedown in the closing moments of the third period to take a 4-2 decision. Fifth-year senior Nick Roy (Wall, N.J./Wall HS) hung with top-ranked Phil Davis in the final home appearance, but the Nittany Lion wrestler, last year's NCAA runner-up at 197 pounds, earned an early advantage behind a pair of first-period takedowns to claim a 6-1 win. The Wolverines wrap up the dual-meet portion of their 2006-07 slate on Sunday (Feb. 18), squaring off against No. 14 Northwestern in Evanston, Ill. The match is slated for a 7 p.m. CST start at Welsh-Ryan Arena. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #11 Penn State 21, #23 Michigan 16 Individual rankings from NWCA/InterMat Hwt -- #3 Aaron Anspach (PSU) dec.
