The dual against Boise State University will also be televised, which will be the first time in Northern Colorado wrestling history a dual has been broadcasted over live television.
The dual will be covered on CET, which is carried exclusively on XFINITY service across Colorado on Channel 900 (HD) and 105 (SD) in the Denver and Colorado Springs DMAs.
Roughly, 1 million subscribers have access to CET from Fort Collins/Greeley in the north to Pueblo in the south along the Front Range. CET can also be seen in mountain towns such as Vail, Aspen, and Steamboat Springs.
Northern Colorado is looking to bounce back after two road conference losses last week at North and South Dakota State University. With a 0-4 record overall and 0-3 in conference duals this season, it is imperative the Bears get back on track and tally some wins this weekend. The first shot at redemption will come Friday against Oregon State University.
Northern Colorado wrestled both Oregon State and Boise State on the road last season. The Bears lost to the Beavers 35-6, and defeated the Broncos 22-15.
Oregon State is 1-3 on the year, losing to University of Michigan, Appalachian State, and fellow Big 12 conference member Utah Valley. The Beaver's lone win came against Duke University.
OSU has a trio of ranked wrestlers, in [149] Joey Delgado (11-6), [197] Corey Griego (13-7), and [285] Cody Crawford (13-4). While Openmat.com ranks all three, only Delgado and Griego are ranked by Intermat as well. The rankings are as follows:
Openmat, Intermat:
[149] Joey Delgado – 13, 19
[197] Corey Griego – 14, 20
[285] Cody Crawford – 15
Boise State is also 1-3 overall this year. The Bronco's three losses have come to Purdue University, and North and South Dakota State University. The lone win came against Utah Valley University back in December. Boise State has not wrestled any Pac 12 duals on the year, with their first coming next week against CSU Bakersfield.
The Broncos have a new head coach in Mike Mendoza, who is halfway through his first season in Boise, Idaho. Prior to becoming the Boise State head coach, Mendoza spent the previous six years as the head coach at CSU Bakersfield.
Northern Colorado has one ranked wrestler from Intermat in [141] No. 20 (Intermat) Timmy Box. With a 4-0 record so far in the dual season, Box has been a catalyst for this Bear's lineup, providing bonus points in three of the four duals this year. By himself, Box has accounted for 16 team points during the dual season thus far.
Another wrestler that is coming off a great weekend is [184] Dylan Gabel. With a 3-1 record on the dual season, Gabel is riding a three-match win streak in duals. Unlike Box, Gabel only has one bonus point victory in duals this year, registering a pin against Tyler McNutt of North Dakota State University last weekend.
