Jayson Ness, Minnesota
Fr., 125, Bloomington, Minn./Kennedy
Ninth-ranked Ness posted a pair of decisions last week to jump-start the Gophers in victories over top-ranked Oklahoma State and at No. 7 Iowa State. Ness overcame an early deficit against OSU's Tyler Shinn to win 6-3 to give the Gophers an early lead in the match. In Ames last Friday, Ness scored five takedowns against Nick Fanthorpe to cruise to a 12-5 decision. After entering the season unranked, Ness has quickly catapulted himself into the top 10 in the nation and is now established as one of Minnesota's top wrestlers. Ness now has a 13-2 overall record on the season, including 6-1 dual meets. His 22 team points is tied for fourth on the team.
